I am listening to the rough mixes of one of the best albums I've heard.
Of the 24 songs Songdog have recorded they'll only have space for 14. This might be a crime against the art of songwriting.
Of course, no-one else will ever listen to it: but this album (when it comes out) should propel these guys into the stratosphere. Comparisons are often odious...nevertheless if you think of the best and most humane albums from songwriters of whom you know, this album (as and when) should be in your top twenty.
Aside of shouting it from the rooftops, I don't know what else to do.
When one stumbles upon great art one has certain duties.
The first is dissemination, and this I must do.

I've begged copies from Lyndon and the lads.
Some of the songs are blinding in their brilliance.

'Dawn fluttered like a bird
From a magicians hat
I fell asleep on Porth Cawl sands...'

That's their site, and the cover of their last album, which was good, but...

is their Wiki entry.
But this collection of songs is magical.
