Watercolour Music WCMCD035
Acoustic guitarist extraordinaire Goldie crosses more borders than a BBC foreign correspondent, and in
company here with Angus Lyon's subtle accordion, bassist Duncan Lyall, drummer Jim Drummond, and
added cello and tuba, builds beautiful textures, grooves and melody to lift this album way out of the ordinary.
Confident, assertively performed and startlingly different – tango, gypsy, funk, classical, American folk and
jazz are all thrown into a crystal-clear recording that's a must for every guitarist.

Biography
John Goldie is without doubt a world class acoustic guitarist, incorporating a wide range of influences including jazz, blues, Celtic and funk. After a successful career as a sideman and session player, a chance meeting with jazz guitarist Martin Taylor led John to decide of a change of musical direction, duo gigs and eventually the award winning group Spirit of Django followed. As a solo artist John has toured worldwide and has also collaborated with some of the best players around including Tommy Emmanuel and George Benson.

"At last a follow up to Janette Mason's sparkling debut as leader. Alien Left Hand ....was well worth the wait…” Production **** Performance**** -- BBC Music Magazine
“…an album fizzing with fresh ideas and delights, an exhilarating musical journey .. with brilliantly original writing and inspired playing…” -- Helen Mayhew
"Every track from the rhythmic ‘NY Cab Ride’ and restless ‘4 Wheel Drive’ to the brooding ‘Mae’s Song’ has a terrific hook but it’s the way Mason switches tempo and moods that makes ALH great fun. " -- Diva Magazine
