een volledig akoestisch, instrumentaal album van gitaarvirtuoos en Engels folkicoon Martin Simpson.
voer voor gitaarliefhebbers en gitaristen in spe. fraai, onnavolgbaar spel, waarbij te denken valt aan iemand als de Amerikaan Leo Kottke, maar dan meer folk gericht. een album dat ik bij tijd en wijle graag mag opzetten. mis alleen de warme, donkere, doorleefde stem van Martin Simpson.
Album werd opgenomen "at Beluga Warehouse, Brooktondale, New York, USA
All compositions arranged by Martin Simpson
info voor de liefhebber:
"The guitars used are: a pair of Stefan Sobell rosewood and spruce intruments, one with a carved top and one with a flat top, a Custard and Kistler koa and cedar flat top and a Ralph Bown all koa baritone guitar.
Sobell arch top guitar used on track 1; Sobell flat top guitar used on tracks 2,4,6,7,9 & 12; Custard and Kistler flat top guitar used on tracks 3,8,10 & 11; Bown baritone guitar used on tracks 5 & 12.
Eric Aceto plays Violect and Mandolect ( these are electro-acoustic instruments of high design and construction)"
citaat van Martin Simpson uit de liner notes:
"Leaves of Life" is a collection of acoustic guitar pieces based on the melodies of traditional ballads and songs from England, Ireland, Scotland and Australia. All these aires were learned from singers, and I would like to thank Dave Burland, Martin Carthy, Shirley Collins, Bobby Eaglesham, Dick Gaughan, Andy Irvine, Jessica Simpson, June Tabor and the Watersons for their various interpretations"
