The comments on the lack of bass also remind me of our recent discussion towards the end of this thread. If you're working unplugged, some sounds are a lot easier to produce than others.

On the "don't call it twee" front, this reminds me that I must get round to blogging my review of Oak Ash Thorn. I was going to write something when it came out, but held back when I realised that - despite thinking it's a really good album which everyone should own - there was something I didn't quite like about almost every single track, so an honest evaluation would have to be very carefully-worded and it's-not-them-it's-me if it wasn't going to backfire horribly. Maybe I should try anyway. As it goes, I feel a lot more wholeheartedly positive about the Woodbine & Ivy Band's album - and for that matter about FPR001 - so a rave review of Folk Police recordings collectively is still on the cards.
