Very interesting to read about his recording process.

Also loved the, "You steal from everyone except yourself" bit.  

Thanks  ;D

Rather than start a new thread I thought this might be a good place to mention this NPR interview and acoustic performance:

Thanks for that Tim - always good to hear some background. I love Salford Sunday (probably my favourite on the new album).

Thanks for the link. Good songs and an interesting interview.
I never knew John Kirkpatrick's father also was a police man and of Scots origin, just like RT's.
I've payed too little attention to RT's last album; the songs played here seem better than other recent work.
