Songs of Love & Death
by Reg Meuross and Harbottle & Jonas
supported by 5 fans who also own “Sea Glass (single)”
These are very familiar songs. Somehow these arrangements, and their performance, beckon you to hear them as if for the first time. A ‘classic’ version might mean one first heard decades ago. In this case it means one that will surely still be heard decades hence.

Bloody Noses EP
by Richard Thompson
supported by 5 fans who also own “Sea Glass (single)”
John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser. Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this. Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?). With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP.
