Playing this tonight and I'm blown away by how good it is. And it must be reasonably rare as a google search only threw up one image of the cover. Seriously good stuff. Freddie White, recorded live in 1978.




And this, cos the Bob spate still continues...

Great album Fran, FW turned me on to Warren Zevon, Randy Newman and John Hiatt a long time ago.
This is good too, if you can find it

I'll be watching out for that one tweber - and anything else I can get of him.

and Tom Waits, Leon Redbone, Hogey Carmichael, Guy Clarke and LOADS more.... Freddie is a feckin' legend.

Have to watch out for more from him now. That album is seriously good.

You're right Fran, this is seriously good. I'd forgotten I had it! And on vinyl too :) Nicky Ryan does a great job of capturing his voice live from a gigs round Ireland in 1978.....
Can't wait to catch up with the only other Lp I have of him - 'Do You Do'

+1
His albums are all available for download on his own website but only more recent stuff on cd, some good vids too.
Touring at the minute too: http://www.freddiewhite.com/home2.htm

A great first album

Absolutely.
I gave it another spin last night. Brilliant.
Unfortunately my vinyl copy is destroyed from wanton youthful lack of care.
So CD has to do.

Thanks for the reminder Conor.
