About this product
The Living Kind - I listen to a lot of Metallica. James Hetfield is one of my favourite guitarists. I took his 'down down up' picking style and put it to a three-time jig feel, then practised it for about ten years, before I could get my head around singing to it... but when the song was ready to come along, it did so in twenty minutes. It's hard to get out of bed sometimes, and most days it's almost impossible to see things clearly. Since I turned 40, I've felt that I'm starting to run out of time... but I've still got a lot of work to do. I wrote this song as a marker on the map. It's good to want to be The Living Kind. - The songs are about growing and changing for the better, for the most part. Turning 40 brought me a lot of peace during a tumultuous period. It was as if I finally reconciled with some of the darker corners of my nature. I have had to make some drastic decisions in order to look after my family - selling our house, relocating a couple of times - and have since had to rebuild accordingly. The songs are about staying positive, trying to keep an eye on the centre, holding on to those you love and working towards a better future.

Walter Davis - Scorpio Rising [VINYL LP] date 01/01/1989
Vinyl LP pressing. Darden Smith is a singer-songwriter based in Austin whose 30 year career redefines what it means to be a musician as the founder and creative director of Songwriting With Soldiers, a nonprofit that pairs award-winning songwriters with veterans and service members in retreat settings to craft songs about combat and the return home. Rooted in the songwriting traditions of his home state of Texas, he is described by experts as a singer/songwriter blessed with an uncommon degree of intelligence, depth, and compassion. His 2017 album, Everything, features musicians Roscoe Beck (bass), JJ Johnson (drums), Charlie Sexton (guitars), Michael Ramos (keyboards) and David Mansfield (mandolin, pedal steel and strings), with vocal help from James House, Beth Nielsen Chapman, Bonnie Bishop, and Kelly Willis. Recorded in Austin, the collection features songs written by Smith and with collaborators House, Radney Foster, Matraca Berg, Bruce Robison, and Jay Clementi. Mary Gauthier says of the album, InchDarden Smith has made a beautiful new record, filled with hope and love and heartfelt tenderness... This music is magic, and who doesn't need a little magic right now?Inch
