Steve Ashley- Speedy Return (CD)
While the Stroll on tracks were cradled within the English folk tradition, Speedy Return explores the human condition using a more eclectic range of musical genres. With twelve original songs and an instrumental title track, Speedy Return, which was recorded after a solo tour of the USA, marks a clear change of direction without any loss of musical identity. Modal tunes mix with blues, rock, and Latin rhythms and yet the result remains distinctively English. Market Square's reissue of Speedy Return comes with it's customary attention to detail - an informative 8-page booklet, including previously unpublished photographs and complete lyrics. 2006.
Tracklist:
- None Can Tell
- Don't Forget
- Well, Well, Well
- Good Enemies
- Lazy Lament
- Speedy Return
- Old John England
- Cynical Sam
- Travelling Through The Night
- Broken Wing
- Well At The World's End
