Listening context

Road, recollection and point of view

The album can be approached as a linked sequence rather than only a set of separate tracks. Its titles suggest movement across places and perspectives, while the interspersed spoken passages function as connective material within the larger narrative frame.

For this independent Resource, the value of the record lies in its continuation of an interest in character, social observation and theatrical storytelling within a song-based form.
