BRIDGET ST. JOHN - LIVE AT THE BETSEY TROTWOOD
(Feeding Tube FTR 474 /Shagrat ENT 024)
BRIDGET ST. JOHN - LIVE AT THE BETSEY TROTWOOD
We are delighted to announce the arrival of:
LIVE AT THE BETSEY TROTWOOD - BRIDGET ST. JOHN
12" vinyl LP/download

In conjunction with our mates in Massachusetts, Feeding Tube Records, we are releasing a live LP by one of the true great British singer/ songwriters of her generation, Bridget St. John. It coincides with the 50th anniversary of her debut 45 and LP on John Peel's Dandelion label.

In February 2017 after a couple of false starts, I managed to get Bridget to play a special show at the Betsey Trotwood in Farringdon. It was a magical performance and fortunately for those not lucky enough to be there, her set was recorded for posterity. Mixed and mastered by the ever reliable Mr Tony Poole (himself a performer on that same Saturday afternoon), we are presenting Bridget's complete set (shorn of just a few spoken intros and of course in-between song guitar tunings). Running at almost 50 minutes, we are releasing this as a 12" vinyl LP/download.

The record is a stellar mix of choice cover versions, Bridget classics and some of her newer songs.

LIVE AT THE BETSEY TROWOOD - BRIDGET ST. JOHN (Feeding Tube FTR 474 /Shagrat ENT 024)

Side 1: Castaway/Fly High/Mon Gala Papillons/Rabbit Hills/The Fiddle and the Drum - America the Beautiful
Side 2: The Hole in My Heart/Lazarus/Ask Me No Questions/Suzanne

Tony has a done a great job on the sound, what he calls his 'Hejira' mix. The album comes in a classy black and white single sleeve designed by Mr Hurford and features a couple of fabulous photos of the songstress taken by her daughter Cristy.

Total run of 500 copies.

Vinyl LP/download £25 + P&P £5 UK, £12 Europe

US/rest of the world - we strongly recommend you contact Feeding Tube direct - the LP is released Stateside on 11th October
