More fantastic album reviews and podcasts

Yes, another member of the human race has given a vote of confidence to my album. This week it's Wildy Haskell at Wildy's World.

Again, it's a very positive review and contains all the correct weblinks!! It scored 4 stars out of 5.



Following on from this, there's been a further 3 broadcasts of material.

1st is Dalecast, who has already played my material, he's chosen 'Your Shadow' this time.

2nd is Robkast from Holland, who has sent my some lovely messages regarding the songs. As of this moment in time I've not listened to the podcast but can be fairly sure it's worth mentioning to you!

And 3rd is US-based WLSO fm, who have played 2 songs lately. 'Even' and 'Gods & Angels'.


And now onto last week's happenings. On Tuesday I had a very productive recroding session with Paul F on the guitars. This has now put the Paradise Street debut album a large step nearer to completion. I'm still not 100% sure if the record will be out before Christmas, it's possible it will now be January. I hope you're not too upset by this and can wait that little bit longer. But it will be worth the wait, I'm enjoying making it immensely.

The first band gig was on Friday at the Cricketers at Horbury. Not a bad night, we didn't go down too badly at all. Again, for internal band reasons, not a happy event for me but we'll be back there in February 2009. This gig scores 4.

The next one was on Saturday at the Bay Horse, Lindley. Not overly busy, but it was a filthy night (even for Lindley). We managed to keep a small but appreciative crowd entertained until the end of the night. The set went better and I felt far happier driving home this time (plus I live pretty close by!). This one scores a 6.

If you're wondering what these numbers mean, look at the previous blog. But basically it's just a mark out of 10.

Sunday afternoon was the final stock car meeting of the season at Belle Vue, Manchester. After getting bogged down in Man City traffic the rain set in which led to some very boggy racing. So ends another BRISCA season and as with last year it was very wet, resulting in an early curtailment of the action, and a long hot bath afterwards!
