I am a little annoyed with myself being a day late with this. Yesterday was the 100th anniversary of the birth one of my favourite singers and musicians Blossom Dearie. Here is one of my top tracks by her

Here’s that title sequence that I mentioned at the start that inspired me. I saw the film at a cinema in Tokyo in 1999. youtu.be/ywi6OLq7lL4?si…

Thank you Tim for all of your kind support.

Our last track is another reprise of the opening theme. Andrew repairs and adapts games consoles and I wanted to bring that other aspect of his life into the album. It’s a blessing for those that we love.

Jay Jay did such an incredible job for us.
Thank you Jay Jay.

Jay Jay and I listened to and discussed lots of music, especially from the 1930s and 40s, songs written for Al Bowlly, music written and arranged by Alec Wilder and others. I wanted us to create a very illustrative arrangement.

The Things We Threw Away is another reflective song of mine about some regrets. I had the opportunity to collaborate with New York based musician and arranger Jay Jay Lozano.

And I love Andrew’s solo.

Hop Skip Jump is another song that I have been singing to myself for a decade. I saw it as been like a collision between Bo Diddley, School House Rock and European New Wave.I saw it as being a single as soon as I sang the chorus to myself.

#timstwitterlisteningparty
We wanted to set the song in a different context. I wanted it to be for outsiders who find themselves living in a world that can feel a bit dark and threatening. I wanted the song to feel like it was sung in their sacred place that they feel safe.
