Home Grown (2009, 10 tracks)
Samples:
Sail Away
Of all the miraculous things that it's possible to do on a digital recording system, being able to multitrack voice is my favourite. Symbolically, singing in harmony with oneself has to be a good thing! So I had a lot of fun when Frank and I first bought our home recording system, resulting in a few tracks along the lines of This Is Home (sampled above).
I'm really proud of this CD. It's home made, home grown (even the lettuce on the front cover), created on a shoestring, and full of life and joy and things dear to my heart...
My colours are simple but trueBlack or white, the choices are few
I'll sing or I'll die
Bright feathers have nothing to do
With the way of the wing
So while I'm alive I'll sing
(Track 8, Magpie Dreaming)
