New Album - Down The Road Wherever

[Eddie Fox]

Talking about Camerado, I’ll never understand why that masterpiece was cut out.

I find the thought of reusing an old song rather preposterous, however good or timeless the song may be or how well it matches the new cover photo. It's not like the man is not productive enough to come up with new ones, right? Besides, the title of the album has the word "road" in it.

I'm curious though to see whether there's a song on the album with that title, or if it's just a phrase from one of the songs, or whether it's just a description, as was the case with the Tracker album. It will also be interesting to see whether the cover art is an indicator of the music, or if it's purely a general metaphor. Personally, I'd love to hear some twangy Americana rock from the man, preferably with only small doses of Celtic instrumentation this time round.

Yes. Then again it's a mystery why so many B-sides are better than many songs that made it to the records.

You know it was a joke right?

No, I didn't.

Down the road wherever ..
 
I would bet MK or Kitty took the picture.   Maybe there is a nice story to it. I like the fresh colours and the font. Thanks for the find.
I have no idea how you guys are doing it.

Was the tracker cover also taken by kitty?

OK. It was.

The time between leak and release are happy times for us fans and people say the most crazy shit because of the excitement.

Because of language barriers and the fact that we are using a written medium, it's not always easy to pick up the intended meaning.

Only meant it would be great if he does, coz I absolutely love the song, not that I want him to, new songs are priority. Best case, he actually plays it live, along with those other amazing b-sides

Fully understood.

Just wait until they release the song titles. People will blow up the most imaginary balloons.

Ah, I see.

Yes, Camerado would be a nice gem to dig up and include in the live set. I also wouldn't mind if he played Prairie Wedding again.

The cover photo, yes.

Thanks for the information. I didn‘t know that she is also a photographer.

No, she's not.

A photography like the one in "tracker" cover doesn't need a photographer, nor the one for the new record, actually, I've taken similar photographies in Tenerife and I have a friend who is not a photographer that took many pictures like the one in the cover in a travel along the US west coast, some of them even better than the used in the new MK record cover...

Looks like a trendy thing to do the cover pictures from whatever. I still recall this Clapton cover, that is a shelfie made with his Iphone...
