Strange Faith And Practice (2009)Strange Faith And Practice (2009)STRANGE FAITH AND PRACTICEThis is where I began to make the records I always should’ve been making. Benedic Lamdin and Riaan Vosloo did a brilliant job of putting me in the middle of some great arrang...


Parish Bar (2009)Parish Bar (2009)PARISH BARThese tracks were all, for the most part, demos I made at home. It may not be perfect, but it feels honest. And I like all the messy bits, the reggae samples, the soul bits, the jazz. And I...


October EP (2003)October EP (2003)OCTOBER EPThis I love. I did it all at home for no reason other than enjoyment. I like the songs and I like the feel. Ring The Bells especially. It came out as a 7 inch on Green Tea records....


Now Then (2005)Now Then (2005)NOW THENThere are a lot of good things about this record. Mark Nevers did a great production job and Clayton Ivey, my favourite southern musician, played on it. And Dan Penn sang harmony You can’t arg...


Lovers Knot (1997)Lovers Knot (1997)LOVERS KNOTThis was my first solo recording and if it’s any good at all, it’s down to the guidance and single mindedness of Danny Kahn. Danny Kahn put the whole thing together and made it work. I wasn...


Longtime Traveller (2010)Longtime Traveller (2010)LONG TIME TRAVELLERI finally got my chance to make a record with Adrian Sherwood. I’ve known Adrian for twenty years and he was, and is, a huge influence on me. He’d recently recorded some rhythms wit...


Just What Time It Is (2000)Just What Time It Is (2000)JUST WHAT TIME IT ISI had no business making either this record or the next one. I should have had a producer watching over things. I thought I knew what I doing but, well, I was full of shit. Everyon...


Easy Now (2002)Easy Now (2002)EASY NOWOnce again, a mess. There are maybe five good tracks here and the rest are expendable. And yet there are people who tell me this is their favourite record. I’ve never had any idea of my own ab...


Days Are Mighty (2008)Days Are Mighty (2008)DAYS ARE MIGHTYThis is a strange record. It should have been better than it is. There are maybe five songs on it worth hearing. I like Poor Little Barn and My Kind, but I should have gone away and wri...

(with Fellow Travellers)

Things And Time (1993)Things And Time (1993)THINGS AND TIMEI think this one got away from us. 16 tracks Who were we kidding If we’d lost 5 or 6 it would’ve been a better record. When it’s good, it’s really good, but there’s a lot there that did...


No Easy Way (1990)No Easy Way  (1990)NO EASY WAYIn 1990 I got a call from Dan Dow, owner of Okra Records, asking if he could release some demos I’d recorded in New York with Dave Schramm. I said I’d rather record something new and he sai...


Love Shines Brighter (1994)Love Shines Brighter (1994)LOVE SHINES BRIGHTERThis is just Loraine and I singing a mix of Fellow Traveller tunes and covers. Very intimate, very sparse. I think it’s one of the best Fellow Traveller recordings. It came out as...


Just A Visitor (1992)Just A Visitor (1992)JUST A VISITORThis is probably, among my records, my favourite. It sounds great, isn’t trying to be anything else than what it is, and the songs, mostly, are good. I think we really made something. I’...


A Few Good Dubs (1994)A Few Good Dubs (1994)A FEW GOOD DUBSThe final Fellow Travellers CD. Martin Harrison was at the controls while John Harborne drafted in Steve Buckley to play over some old Fellow Traveller rhythms. And I got to sing a Bill...


(with The Okra All-Stars)

The Okra All-Stars (1993)The Okra All-Stars (1993)OKRA ALL STARSThis was Dan Dow’s idea. Myself, Dave Schramm, Hank McCoy, and Ricky Barnes all chose some songs and wrote a couple new ones and recorded it in Ohio. I love the version we did of Wild An...


(with Ian Gomm)

Only Time Will Tell (2010)Only Time Will Tell (2010)ONLY TIME WILL TELLI had long been a fan of the English country rock band Brinsley Schwarz, and found, to my surprise, that it’s guitarist, Ian Gomm, lived 7 miles away from me. We used to get togethe...
