Dear Beloved
On June 15th Thought Becomes Reality was released on CD and made available worldwide. Without you, our dearly beloved, this would not have been possible. Our next task is to produce the vinyl edition mastered from 24bit files to bring you the best possible sound reproduction. The artwork will be reproduced in its originally intended brighter colours which had to be softened for the CD. Our spacecraft Zero Sector Four will come as a large fold out poster.
We have space for more port holes to be added. If you wish to contribute by purchasing a port hole please email circulus.folk@virgin.net or come on board instantly through our myspace paypal button (or that email address mentioned above). Seats are again £50 and you will receive two free copies of the record.
Long live vinyl
Yours mythically

The welcome return to Orange Street of THE KIM THOMPSETT BAND. Kim - guitar, vocals, flute, recorder, zither, harp, bowed psaltery Dave Kent - guitar, keyboards Naomy Browton - cello, vocals Andy Renshaw - Percussion, kalimba Kims debut CD Songs From the Uglee Meadow.... "As well as singing, multi-instrumentalist Kim plays guitar, flute, zither, recorder and percussion. The result is an intimate and intensely personal recording, rich in pastoral imagery and rooted in the English landscape.....It draws on Celtic, medieval and English folk, but the album is not overwhelmed by its influences, retaining its own shape and identity. The tone is ruminative, reflective and at times celebratory, whether a poignant love song crafted from an epitaph or taking in the beauty of leaf and stream. For more reference points, think Sandy Denny’s Who Knows Where the Time Goes?.... Philip G Martin guests on hurdy-gurdy and bagpipes ( WILL SUMMERS from CIRCULUS also appears ) , while Sarah Tadros weaves cobweb patterns on violin. A very mellow recording, not so much shoe-gaze as tree-gaze, and a finely crafted piece of English whimsy " www.myspace.com/kimthompsett WITH SUPPORT FROM-BENEATH THE OAK- last seen at Orange street supporting THE KITTIWAKES- watch the gig again here- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_gJkYfyLB0

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace...
Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?

A bit of advance notice - MondayMonday proudly presents Rún and Steven Finn and more at The Wilmington Arms, Clerkenwell on Monday 7th December
Rún collect and arrange old folk songs written in the ancient language of Erin. So far, thanks to Nora from Donegal, they have a nice wee collection of well-known ditties and are now adding to their repertoire with some unusual old forgotten songs from the province of Ulster. Rún are five fantastic lassies who perform four-part vocal arrangements of old Gaelic songs like ’An Cailín Rua’ (the red-haired girl), ’Casadh an tSúgain’ (twisting the hayrope) and ’Bo Na Leath Adhairce’ (the one-horned cow). Rún is the Gaelic word for ’secret, wish or love’ (cf. rune). See http://www.myspace.com/runceol ..
Steven Finn’s ears were filled with the music of Count Basie, Benny Goodman, Johnny Cash and old time country music. Aged 15 he began teaching himself the guitar, learning songs like Leadbelly’s ‘Bourgeois Blues’ and Charlie Daniels’ ‘The devil went down to Georgia’. On hearing Bob Dylan songs Finn started to write his own words and in doing so found a lifelong passion for Jazz and Folk Blues, a getaway car he could drive.
