Songs In The Key Of B Natural

I'm awaiting delivery of my new CD " Songs In The Key Of B Natural" which should be here in the next couple of weeks! It's all original material. Here's the liner notes

For a long time now, I’ve wanted to gather what I feel are my best songs and put them on one disc. “Songs In The Key of B Natural” is the end result. If it all ended tomorrow, I’d be happy that this represents my creative juices.
I’ve tweaked and culled and had to call a halt, because there’s usually another song around the corner. These recordings are a combination of solo performances and sessions with occasional guest musicians and recordings with “Ploughmens Bunch” the band that relit my songwriting fuse. Big thanks to the “Bunch”, Bryan Peter Rudd at Lincoln University, “Organic” Karl Svarc, Trev Cunnington and Hugh Scullion for humouring me and helping me make this album.
I wouldn’t have been able to do any of this without my wife Anne, who’s put up with my musical condition since she first came across me as a fresh faced young man! Love to you and daughters Holly and Sophie.

Tracks 4,7,9,11,14,16,18 & 19 recorded with Ploughmens Bunch. Tracks 1 & 6 feature Karl Svarc on six and 12 string guitar Everything else - Steve solo with acoustic/nylon strung guitar or the Scullion strummer.
