"On a very quick trip through my home town of Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia, Ian, Nigel and Howard came over to my home for a very quick recording session. After 5 hours recording we had about nine good tracks in the can. We all did a few more the next morning and then played a gig that night. In April of 2012 Ian came back over for another duo session with me and we got a further 5 tracks done. The bonus tracks come from a session that Ian and I did with John Morrison and Natalie his bass playing wife at the time. As Ian resides in Ireland I grab every opportunity I can to work and record with this master of Gypsy swing guitar".

A Date With Firth
Many thanks Mai Neime for this second Andy Firth (it seems I only have to ask!) You really have been giving me great week of postings. You are a gentleman, sir!
ReplyDeleteMai Neime can you help?
ReplyDeleteOn the following site is another Andy Firth - but is frustrating that the files are MPC .My computer knowledge is limited - well I am getting a bit! I tried a converter but it has not worked Is it possible you could convert and maybe put it on Silky Denims?
