Murder Ballads is the first thing you get. Then you get everything else because the man is a god.

 

[sojourner]

the man is a god.

I'm really starting to think this. I reckon he has the power to turn straight men bent, and bent girls straight

There so many threads, so forgive me, but must recommend this interview...

An actual interview where the host gives the guy space to reply ... about life, loss, loneliness and redemption (of a sort)

 

[Voley]

Heh. Nice bump.

Push The Sky Away is my fav of recent years.

I haven't heard the new one yet, as I didn't like the single off it. Is it any good?

 

[redsquirrel]

Releaed 30th August - just three songs available so far

The second single is better. Long Dark Night.

I’ve added it to my Cave playlist.

Cheers Danny. Yes, that sounds more like my kind of thing, ta.

I was listening to this live version of Jubilee St recently. Last minute or so is fucking epic.

I just saw the last bit posted elsewhere. Absolutely beautiful. I'll watch the rest when I've got time.

From 20 minutes in. Wonderful stuff.

Reminds me of a Q&A gig I saw him do a few years ago which was just him and a piano on stage. It was questions from the audience with answers from him similar to that, interspersed with solo songs

 

[Hollis]

It's a great interview - especially when he starts talking about grief... the Red Hand letter he reads out at the end is enough to challenge this cynic.

[danny la rouge]
