Here I am listening to ‘wood metal & flesh’, a CD I bought in Canterbury years ago having just parked & heard this amazing sound from round the corner. I assumed there must be a band playing, but no, just Mr Smyth playing a mandolin through an echoplex. I was hoping to hear more, but after I bought the CD he said ‘wicked!’ And packed up. Great to know there’s at least one more album of his out there... I played the CD to my cousin, who said ‘nice, but you’ll never play it again’. Wrong, it’s a gem.
