John’s 6 th album released in the spring of 2011 as a collection of songs inspired by and from John’s home area; the Waveney, Yare and Blyth Valleys. This eastern fringe of England is both naturally beautiful and industrial at the same time and the songs here, mostly original but with some traditional, aim to capture the atmosphere and some of the characters of the area.

Probably his most folky album, simpler in its arrangements, never the less still features the violin excellence of Mario Price and other guest musicians on some of the tracks, most notably, Ian Sainsbury on piano and John’s wife Lynne on harmonies.

The fourteen tracks include live favourites such as; Stornoway to Lowestoft, Dunwich (the lost city), Yarmouth Town and Ashore. The eight page booklet contains all the lyrics.
