Two Minutes To MidnightThis album started off with me recording versions of as many of my songs as I could. I ended up with 50+ songs but what seemed to be emerging was an acoustic blues/rock album to follow on from my earlier release, “Steel Strings And Bruised Reed”. So I whittled it down to 15 tracks and this is the result. I played all the instruments myself; guitars, piano, drums, percussion, bass, ukulele, blues harp…just whatever I felt it needed at the time. Exceptions to this are: Steven Sproat, ukulele on “Two Minutes To Midnight”, Mark Cole, blues harp on “Man Flu”, Nicholas John, guest vocals on “Freedom Train”, Gary Hunt, backing vocals on “Here By My Side”. The result is a personal and intimate selection of songs produced workmanlike in my own studio. Me and my muse just getting along! Hope you enjoy!Keith Thompson
