Still vastly inferior to the joys of Islam of course, although I'd pit the sexual performance of seven well-tested and highly skilled hookers against the beginner's fumblings of 72 virgins any day.

I think Universal should use this: "feels like the perfect album to play on a cheerful, sunny Saturday morning while you potter about the house and water the plants" In their press blurbs. Ace.

There's a demo of Brown Trout Blues floating about somewhere that is even lovelier, but this version is pretty damn good too. You're right about the arrangements, Rob. He sounds so absolutely, traditonally English without ever quite managing a recognisable folk song, as such. It's that modern/tradtional game that I think I find so appealing.

Brown Trout Blues is something else. Love those forlorn horns. Forlhorns? No link for where to buy? Fine. Be that way. I'll find it myself then.
