Roy Dodds (drums) Ewen Vernal (bass), Donald Shaw (keyboards) and guitarist Ian Carr play alongside producer and fiddlerJohn McCusker and Kris. Irish singer Heidi Talbot duets with Drever on The Banks of the Nile, as before, the album mixes old andnew writing. Album Tracks 1. Mark the Hard Earth 2. This Old Song 3. Shining Star 4. Allegory 5. Wild Hurricane 6. Sweet Honey in the Rock 7. O' A' the Airts 8. The Call and the Answer 9. The Crown of London 10. The Banks of the Nile 11. Freedom Come A'ye

Villmow,Michael / Koln Big Band - 1987-1990 [VINYL LP] date 08/07/2015

Kris Drever's new album arrives with the wisdom of someone who's spent years listening as much as playing. Doing This For Love marks the latest step of a journey from the traditional Scottish folk that first established him, dealing in inherited narratives for something more personal and immediate. These ten songs are guitar-led meditations on the unglamorous heroism of everyday life-the 4am alarm clocks, the ungrateful shifts, the quiet sacrifices made in the name of keeping others whole. Recorded with an ear for sonic clarity and live performance energy, the album captures Drever's gift for making the personal feel universal. His guitar work anchors each track with understated virtuosity, while a constellation of sympathetic collaborators-Rachel Sermanni, Euan Burton, Cahalen Morrison, Louis Abbott (Admiral Fallow) and Matthew Herd (Seafarers) among them-orbit around his songs, adding texture without ever obscuring the core. There's a generosity in the production, a sense of space that allows the dynamics of performance to shine. Album Tracks 1. Doing This for Love 2. Change 3. Bring Back Hanging Around 4. Magic Friend 5. Save a Space 6. Pilot Whales 7. Does Your Sleep Feel Like Rest 8. Every Time 9. Still the Boy 10. Catterline
