Guest treader. Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Pretty late getting into this, but after my sister let me hear it, i rushed out and bought it.It is literally a great, great album. I cant stop listening to it.Standout tracks for me are "I Came In From the Mountain" and "If I Could Name any Name"anyone else here like this? I'd imagine it would be really accessible for most as an intro to folk music/scottish music, for idlewild fans or really just for anyone who likes good music!YOU CAN BUY IT HERE IF YOU LIKE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkaline Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Great album, his solo gig at the Lemon Tree was amazing too. Not quite as good as Idlewild Acoustic at the Loft in Forres though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every Line of a Long Moment is a favourite.His Woody Guthrie cover at Lemon tree was amazing.He has a new album/tour coming out in like, 3 months as well.No Aberdeen dates of yet though.

Bigsby Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Yes, quite.Who else is it that John McCusker tours with?He works with a lot of famous artists, non?He was married to Kate Rusby for a while, but they've split up now. I think I read somewhere that he's on the latest Paul Weller album.He really was awesome on the Knopfler tour, although he ended up missing the first few shows of the US leg because he couldn't get a visa due to some "previous misdemeanour"! Wonder what he's been up to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elizabeth Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 This album's ace. So gutted I missed that Lemon Tree show.Hopefully he'll play town again soon.EDIT: Just noticed he's playing Wizard Festival. 40 for Saturday day ticket, though.

Christy Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 'My Secret Is My Silence' was my favourite album of 06. Absolutely fantastic, from start to finish. 'Every Line Of A Long Moment' is the standout, for me.His Lemon Tree gig was absolutely incredible, and ending with 'Way Over Yonder In The Minor Key' was the icing on the cake. I cannot wait to hear his stuff with Kris Drever and John McCusker.Love from Christy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
