Every now and again we keep an extra song from a session to ourselves for a little while, before surprising you with it. It's nice to have a surprise, especcially if they're as nice and fun as The Secret Love Parade's cover of Velvet Underground's 'After Hours', recorded in the hallway next to their own studio, somewhere in Amsterdam.
The last session we recorded in Glasgow in March 2009, made producer Ro Halfhide smile for more than the week to come. Alasdair Roberts was the man who played some traditionals and his own work, at a workplace where Davie Lawson was working at the time. Roberts will be playing at the wonderful Utrecht music festival called Le Guess Who in November this year.
I went to beautiful Loch Lomond in Scotland today, together with Iona MacDonald from Doghouse Roses. Something we also did in March 2009, when Davie Lawson joined us, bringing along a banjo. He sang 'One Too Many Mornings' by Bob Dylan, and I happened to have my cameras with me. Watch it now.
