I loved this song, and Steve's whole session ~ so great to hear about his inspirations and songwriting process, and to hear about his Ted Hughes encounter. And Phil too ~ so knowledgable on all things musical, I could have listened to him for hours & his sparkly enthusiasm is infectious.
Me too, I think this was my favourite song from the whole weekend though. I don't know if he's released this song yet. This event got me back into writing again.
Very interesting, informative and entertaining two days. Filmed inside the castle's video room. Half of the attendees spent the morning with Phil Beer who entertained his audience with stories of his musical influences from yesteryear along with a selection of songs. The other attendees spent time with Steve Knightley learning how to construct lyrics etc. In the afternoon the goups swapped over. Professionally produced video of these events would be a good idea as saleable souvenirs.
I love the pure voice of a folk singer...it inspires me and reminds me of my roots.
