Until then lets stay on topic and be nice to each other.
Neil
Why on this forum, if you disagree with the expected answer to a point of view, are you always told 'be nice to each other'? It's a discussion we are enjoying, not an argument.  Is this the 5 minute discussion, or the full half hour? |

Slightly veering off topic a little, but Thea Gilmore has just posted "Stirrings..."
Where? or am I missing a subtle joke ... ? |

I hope when Thea records this album, she chooses the only band that would be suitable to back her Ashley Hutchings / Blair Dunlops Albion Band, there could be no other choice in my opinion.  |

When I first saw this thread I thought noooooo - Theas run out of ideas.
But now I've read what its about I'm looking forward to it - there are few artists I would trust to have the talent to carry this off but Thea would be one of them.

This is listed on amazon as "The Technicolour Dream" with a track listing, as listed on this thread, with a cover and such, it has Sandy Denny and Thea Gilmore listed at the same level on the cover.

Where? or am I missing a subtle joke ... ? Thea is heavily pregnant. There was some concern that she might have given birth onstage at Latitude festival last weekend. Baby may well have arrived as I write this. Cheers Nick |

If you look closely it says "words" & "music" above the names. |

Actually, regardless of whether or not you look closely, it does indeed say "words" above Sandy's name and "music" above Thea's name,
although the type-face and contrast at the size I can see it on my computer don't make either word easy to read. I imagine that might sort
out that these are indeed complete enough lyrics by Sandy that Thea felt able to set them to music without adding/altering the words
and having successful songs as a result. Keeps looking interesting to me.

If I had to choose the best British female singer-songwriter of 2011, it would be Thea Gilmore. Sandy was undoubtedly the best of her time, and probably the best of these past thirty years. This should be interesting. Sandy was not always appreciated and Thea hasn't received the recognition which she deserves.

Well, Thea is certainly a Springsteen fan and he is in turn a Steinbeck fan having named one of his albums after Tom Joad.

Oh yes, of course. I had forgotten that album, maybe the name did come via that route.

Congratulations to Thea & Nigel - I wonder which of them is a Peter & Gordon fan, or a rap fan, or perhaps they both like posh cakes.  |
