Candy Seance
'On a Fine May Morning'
Having written so many short stories this year I thought I'd try and write an album full of very short songs. It didn't exactly work out that way as a few of them took steroids behind my back and turned into fully fledged songs. I could have erased them with a big magnet but....... once the genie is out the bottle. A number of people in a number of ways have helped me complete this album. So many thanks to Julie Adams, Steven Patrick, Terry Hopwood-Jackson, Teri Rowan, Caitlin Sagan and Gordon Davidson.

I particularly like Caitlin's painting for "When I Close my Eyes". Really stunning. Some of the best music I've heard in a long time.
ReplyDeleteI've been fortunate enough to have a sneaky listen to Allan's new album but despite Allan being very modest I have to blow his cover - these new songs are wonderful and I'm afraid he's going to have to accept that people are going to love it.
ReplyDeleteBeing so talented must be such a burden! Great artwork too :-)
Beautiful music, Allan. Writing fiction, writing songs, playing guitar, singing, recording... when do you sleep? Keep up the great work.
