A Sneak Preview...

A sneak preview...shhhh...don't tell!

Click the link above to hear one of the possible tracks for the new album...

The track I've added for you to listen to is one of the songs short-listed for inclusion on Cosmic Glue. The song was written in 1971 and first recorded in 1977. This is the recording here. Stephan Marlot wrote this subtle arrangement for cello and we recorded the piece last week, spanning over three decades.

Cosmic Glue is an album that spans time, so we are seriously thinking of adding this tune. I hope you enjoy listening to this raw, unmixed version.

******************************************************

The Cosmic Glue Cello Session was a truly amazing experience. To hear songs I wrote as a young man sounding fresh and alive in the studio brought all present to tears. Stephan's cello arrangements were sublime.

Three tracks in all - two from 1977, one from last week. The reason that it works is that my voice hasn't changed discernibly in all those years - I'm not an opera singer...there was never much to lose!

I couldn't be happier, knowing now that the two eras mesh seamlessly as they have.

Another session next week with a fiddle player and a sax man, plus Mike Cooley adding his guitar magic to the tracks.

For all the updates and tasters, like my Cosmic Glue page:

We're now preparing the next session with guitar, fiddle and horn section.

Overdubs on eight tracks and then I'll be concentrating on vocals.


Facebook is where you'll hear the first snippets.
