Hi, I have put up the new album on the myspace. I would really appreciate any feedback - warts an' all please.



Get a whisky, sit down in a warm low lit room press play and just let it seep in.



Cheers,

James

It's gone and happened. Brit Licks is back! I did the first show this past saturday at 6pm Greenwich Mean Time. That was 12 noon for me I believe. At any rate, it's a 3 hour show now, so get yourself on the computer saturday evenings to tune in! (next saturday it won't be on air unfortunately, but every saturday after that.
