Alistair Anderson - The Grand Chain

Black Crow CROCD216. 1987


I don't have the cover for this. I was cutting my teeth in a typography studio when this CD appeared as a sample of how the client wanted something typeset. They didn't ask for it back, so into the collection it went.

Half the tunes are jolly, thus irritating. The downbeat half are actually quite nice, as far as folky concertina music goes. Parts of it even sound a bit like Dead Can Dance (or is that the other way round?).
