Leaf BAY43CD. 2005
An altogether more satisfying listen than their first outing. Although there's a phenomenal amount of instrumentation on this, it does have more of a feel of their live presence. I've seen them at least twice, maybe more (once in a tiny room in the tower of a city wall which holds perhaps 40 people, once in the hull of an ex-fishing factory ship). Jeremy on accordian and percussion (playing cymbals with a stick attached to his hat) with Heather Trost on violin. They're great. Very passionate, talented and entertaining. As is this.
Incredible version of Portland Town. Pass the hankies.
