On Saturday 15 November I finished recording for my next CD Woman at Egg Recordings Shepperton Studios England. It features 9 original new songs.
I decided to park the difficult second album (called Second Helping) & to get on with the 3rd one. The CD Woman features a lot of a Les Paul that belonged to the late Douglas Adams (Hitchikers Guide). I'm sure he would approve the logic of the 3rd CD coming out second then, the second CD being released 3rd.
The album features Hannah Northedge (who features in the film The Riot Club) and an actress / singer Kate Taylor Davies (who sang two songs on First Cut). They have done a fabulous job on the vocals. I was also lucky to get Nick Lambrianou to play bass on the two songs that Hannah leads on. Ben Harris did a great job on drums on a song Lovers & Money and the youngest musician Alice Greenwood-Marr features by opening the CD on drums, on a track called "She"
I've also found 23 symmetries about the CD; one for each pair of symmetrical chromosome pairs that make up the beautiful creation we call "woman". I'll put them up on the blog as time progresses..
