John Almond and Tom Linneen
The 'Still Revolving' album project started back in 2003 following the release of John’s solo album 'Under Your Door' the previous year. This featured vocals from Tom and out of this sprang a new set of songs many co-written and of course the obligatory new band name. Along the way we co-opted many musical friends to add to the sonic palette. Caulfield's Nigel Penny-Lanyi was involved with the overall project in terms of mixing and production plus adding his own distinctive guitar and pedal steel parts and we are much indebted to him. Others who have helped us realise these songs include Richard Bell, original member of the Blue Aeroplanes; Tim Thornton, drummer with Fink; and the sadly departed Ian Nelson who over the years worked with brother Bill (including the sax solo on 'Ships in the Night' by by Be-Bop Deluxe). This album has been a while in the melting pot but an awful lot of love and care has gone into it and we hope the wait has been worthwhile.
Thanks for listening
