Annotation

Claws and Wings is another collaborative album with Jeremy & Charlie from Levellers helping out. Released in 2003 - a generally acoustic recording with an innovative fusion of styles.

'Some tracks are contemplative, some sad, some energetic, but all make up a truly brilliant CD that I know I will play over and over again.' (What's on Folks)

'Claws and Wings is a very impressive record indeed, uniformly strong and well- balanced both musically and lyrically, and it's easily going to turn out to be one of my albums of the year...'(NetRhythms.co.uk)
