JK features on two new CDs appearing soon by prominent female artists.
Thea Gilmore, who was the singer with The Reel & Soul Association when we were spotted on Top of the Pops 2 a few years ago, has a new album coming out shortly called "Liejacker", on the Fulfill label, distributed by Universal. Co-produced by Thea and her buddy Nigel Stonier, it's set for release at the end of March.
Maddy Prior has a new album out around the same time on Park Records. It's just thirty short years since we were in Steeleye Span together! This is a back to basics kind of effort, with a house band consisting of my son, Benji, and Giles Lewin, formerly of Bellowhead and still currently with The Carnival Band. I'm all over a few tracks, and there is a possibility I might join them live for a London gig later in the year if diaries permit. Anyway, the three of them are doing some gigs in March, and again in October.
AND FINALLY.......
At last! "GOING SPARE", my LP for Free Reed from 1978, is finally coming out on CD at the end of March. It's a selection of my own songs and tunes, including the classic "What Do Doggies Do When They Get Bogies Up Their Nose?" and even more classic "What Do You Do In The Day?" There will be two bonus tracks as well the original contents of the LP - details here when it's fully available. |
