Bob Barrows has asked me to include the following, which I am more than happy to do : Quote (from Shane Kirk): The perfect quiet night in – and a warm fuzzy charitable feeling inside! How do you feel about having a book to read, an album to listen to, and a pint of ale to quaff while you do it? All delivered to your doorstep courtesy of your charitable donation. Send me a private mail telling me how much you’re willing to stump up for such a sumptuous feast of the senses and if you’re willing to pay more than anyone else for the privilege I’ll write back to you demanding your home address so I can box up the goodies, and I’ll tell you where to send your donation. Before you bid, you may want to look at these websites. http://www.drewpotenti.com/ http://www.songsfromthebluehouse.com/reviews.htm http://myspace.com/doyoudoanywings http://www.crouch-vale.co.uk/ Bidding closes on Halloween. ps the grog is one of the last three limited edition "Do You Do Any Brewers Gold"s we had labelled up for the book launch. Make it quick, I've got a terrible thirst on.... And for those not in-the-know, the CD is the brilliant newly-released "Tree" from Songs from the Blue House (aka SftBH), the best unknown folk/country/rock band in the UK. And the book is Shane Kirk's (yes, THE Shane Kirk - of SftBH fame) recently released tome called "Do You Do Any Wings", the often hilarious account of the trials and tribulations of an up-and-coming pub rock band in England. Due to the dangers involved in shipping liquids by post, this auction is open only to UK bidders. All proceeds to go to the Drew's Room fund - many, many thanks Shane!

Show 128 - Wednesday July 25th 2007 Presented by Jules Procter. Music: Like Thunder by Brothers Falloon The Face of Amy by Spire Court The Sun - Mainly by Nuada News about the Wizzafest (www.wizzafest.com) and Warwick Folk Festival. Also, the Banbury Wood Green Pool Campaign site has been updated with news about Paddy Castledine. Good luck to the Meridian Man, Dave Henderson on his 800 mile walk, along the meridian, to Lourdes The "Save The Horton Hospital" capgaiin is holding a vigil on the 25th &26th at St.Mary's, Banbury. Review of Nuada's CD "Court The Sun" : If you are expecting to hear the distinctive sound of Nuada on their new cd "Court The Sun", then you won't be disappointed. The swirling pipes of Ferris Jay, the hurdy gurdy of Ruth Bramley and the scything acoustic guitar of Sam Burke are very much in evidence, starting with the opening title track. But there is so much more to Nuada, and the band have obviously decided that their latest offering should be a really stylish production. This is evident right from the moment you look at the gatefold cd cover. The simple, but effective cover photographs are a sign of the quality of the music to come. With "Court The Sun", Nuada have come up with a well produced selection of, mostly home-written tracks, in a range of styles, to showcase their talents. As well as their signature sound, they have quiet and thoughtful pieces, Peanut Calata and the lullaby Einini, and what for me is the most daring song on the CD, Searching For Lambs. I first heard this sung by Shirley Collins over thirty years ago, where she put such a stamp on the song, that I've rarely heard it since. The playing, arrangement and especially the singing of Ruthie on this track, shows the confidence that Nuada have developed, and I applaud them for it. So if you are after a CD which is pleasing on the eye and pleasing on the ear, then buy a copy of "Court The Sun". I hope you will be as delighted with it as I am. Jules Procter, July 2007.
