We are proud to announce the release of our fifth CD entitled, 'Shadows in the Mist'.
The album features the following tracks;

Come, Come my Brave Boys                Trad.               3.19
This Barren Shore                          G. Davenport                3.20
Leaving of Liverpool                   Trad.                        3.58
Bread and Roses                            Trad.                        2.13
Two Champions                         Trad.                        2.50
The Widowmaker                         J. Conolly                       2.59
Canterbury Bells                        D. Howes                        2.34
Molly Mainprize                         P. Davenport                4.19
Come Daylight                                 P. Davenport                2.46
It was one Winter’s Night                Trad.                         3.04
This is the Price                         P. Davenport                 3.00
Row on, Row on                         Trad. arr. Laycock        3.23
Shadows in the Mist                 P. Davenport            3.28

Not as many Trad tracks as on our previous four records but some rare stuff nevertheless with two songs from the Gatty collection and the very unusual 'other' version of 'The Leaving of Liverpool' from Patrick Tayleur in 1942 and very different in flavour to the better known Dick Maitland version.
Anyway, there are some good choruses to get into and we hope people enjoy this as much as they seem to have enjoyed the earlier offerings.

I can strongly recommend the songs written by Paul. They are extremely well crafted and powerful. We will have one of his songs on our next album.

This new CD is highly recommended, not least due to the quality and strength of Paul's songwriting. Seriously fine all round.

Got my copy at Warwick Folk Festival and can highly recommend it. My personal favourites are "Molly Mainprize" and "This is the price", both written by Paul. Really great stuff. This is one of the CDs that make today's folk-world so much richer.
