knightd68 I've just left a comment on the latest HDC EP and it's made me think I'd like to leave a little review for this one too. i listen to this a lot. It's a deep, low down filthy beast of a mini collection. Raw. Real. Holy. Excellent.

about

Way, way back in 2016 I wrote a song called The Blinkered Blues about a belligerent preacher named Barnabas. It was going to be part of a concept project centred around him, but eventually I changed my mind about the whole thing and the song became part of the 'Simple Songs For These Complicated Times' album. As part of the concept I'd started learning some old 'Spirituals' and I recorded a few of them on a battered rusty old resonator guitar. The plan was to include these with some narration/story tracks in between on a separate CD, to accompany the album proper. I abandoned the whole project, but kept the songs. I never intended to release these, but now seems like a good time to do so.

These five songs were recorded on a flood damaged, battered and rusty Ozark steel bodied guitar that has terrible intonation and is only good for playing slide on. I had a cold at the time of recording and started to lose my voice at the end of the session, I barely got through Elder Green before my voice gave out completely.
