about

I can't remember when I recorded this album! I think it would have been to the end of the nineties. It was never properly released and existed in a CD rom form which I found today when looking for other CDs. Looking at the track list I was probably in between things and trying a few different ideas. I might have sold this CD live but mainly I just gave it away to friends.

My favourite track on it is Maire's Reel which I was experimenting with free improvisation. It is pretty manic and funny! Possibly the best thing to come of this album was recording my tune Granton Fish Bowl which fabulous accordion player Andy Cutting picked up on and a few people picked up from him!

Anyway it's nice to have it up somewhere!
