Jon's 'Fearful Symmetry' is a marvellous album. I love the hugeness of his voice. It's two years old now... 'bout time for something new?
Coincidently, Paul Scourfield's 'Freshly Squeezed' arrived in the post yesterday (I'd followed the link from Anahata's website to find him) and on first hearing it's most enjoyable, with lots of great contributions from Jon.
I'd also be intrigued to hear Jon's hurdy-gurdy project with the inestimable Philip G Martin. How many pies has Mr Loomes got his fingers in?
Anyone who thinks the current UK folk scene is knackered must have cloth ears. There's so much good stuff about. Yippee!
