very sweet lady, thanks for sharing this
And I don't want no grave
Just throw my ashes in the field
And hope there's some soul left to save

Field Songs

Post Mon Jul 11, 2011 10:38 pm

4.5/5 star review: http://www.allmusic.com/album/field-son ... 227/review
" Field Songs is Whitmore's masterpiece thus far: unflinching, stubborn, demonstrative, and inspiring."

It's a lovely album. Mr Amazon delivered more quickly than I expected too.

Great video.

Ooh... is that London date just a one-off, or are there going to be other UK dates announced?

Whoo hoo! - looks like a Seattle road trip is in the cards...unless, of course, Will can find a place to play up here in BC as well...
We'll travel to see him as a supporting act, any way we can, but it would be nice to see him headline a show.
...ain't it funny how you used to know everybody in these parts...
