Awesome work guys very Sgt Pepper and the vocal sounds like the alternate singer from Queens of the Stoneage.

Top shelf!!

I love this collection that you're making. I'm gonna burn a CD if you don't mind. It's going in the car.

It's a real thrill to have some association with this work.

Cheers Tim.


Things have become a bit complicated on the album front, as I now have two albums of 12 songs almost finished: 'Elderflower & Midnight' and 'Dark Harvest'. I'm just waiting to put the latest collaborations in the right places on them, so they should be finished in the next couple of weeks. I've been switching tracks around between them to get the right mix of songs.

You'll be getting a proper burned and inlayed copy as you're playing on both of them!  :)

Oh... then there's the album of covers currently standing at 5 tracks, and I'm 4 tracks into writing the new album!

And all done on the BR.

I had an hour's journey from Leeds to Sheffield today, I listened to the seven tracks I burned all the way through and then I listened to my fave tracks over and over. You have to be doing something special to prize me away from Jim Naughtie and Radio 4.

Cracking stuff Tim, there is a market for this stuff I'm sure.

WOW, Greeny!  You, Flash and the ORH have some chemistry between you for sure.   Almost everything I've heard from anyone associated with Jemima's Kite is outstanding in song, performance and perduction quality and this is no exception.  Love the use of the major 7 chords!

OK to cover but please let me know first.  Thanks!

You can be really proud of this song - and I'm sure your are!  :)

Back in the days of the Beatles you would have made a lot of money with such music. Too bad we don't hear that style very often nowadays ...

In other words: I love it! :)
