Very, very lovely, Alan!
Are you on all tracks on both CDs?
Do you know if I can get discs here in the US?

Thanks Daniel

You should be able to get it direct from the folk police recordings "store" (first link)
I play on about 6 tracks on the main album I do play on Spencer the rover but its a single off the record and I don't think there is anything different on there.

The single is also on itunes and I guess the album soon will be.

Thanks again for listening

Alan

Very nice Alan! It was a beautiful soundtrack for a crisp California morning. It brought to mind my love of Pentangle in my youth of 40 years ago. Only with a pedal steel......as God intended! Cool

Finally got my CD from Folk Police (delayed in the holiday mails, no doubt) and got round to listening to the whole album.
I must say I thought your band's treatment of some of the songs added an edge - dare I say nearly experimental - that I found superb! No dry recital, this. Your pedal steel works very well in this context.
Congratulations, and best wishes for the Spiral Award 2012 (yes, I voted for Woodbine & Ivy).

Any plans for another recording?

Thanks Daniel and Rick

The record is doing well in the UK and we played 2 songs live on a local radio show just before Christmas, this was the first time we have all played together as the album was multi-tracked and must of the band had never even meet let alone played together, having said that the radio show was really good. Eleven of us in the studio no rehearsal and It was exceptional, so there are plans to do some festivals and more recording this year. Thanks for buying the record and your vote.

Happy New year

Alan
