We are starting in Downpatrick, Northern Ireland this week with the band Ash. The song Shining Light was the lead single from their 2001 album Free All Angels. I don't have that one but I do have Intergalactic Sonic 7's - The Best of Ash from where this is taken.
From Northern Ireland it is a trip across the Atlantic and then across the continent to catch up with Americana singer Jonny Kaplan and the title song off his fantastic 1999 album California Heart.
From the West Coast of America we cross the Atlantic again to the North Sea and the East Neuk of Fife. From his epic 2014 masterpiece (gosh 10 years ago!) From Scotland With Love we conclude with our cover star Kenny Anderson aka King Creosote as we rise above the gutter with Pauper's Dough.
More rising above the gutters next Saturday.
Jonny Kaplan - California Heart
If you keep on looking, you'll be sure one day to come across a copy of 'Free All Angels' in a charity shop. It's a very good album....so much so that I ended up buying a vinyl copy a few years back when it was reissued. Yup, I'm that sort of sucker......
