(15) Along a foreign coast
« on: January 30, 2024, 11:59:42 AM »
Along A Foreign Coast   4:33

In a silhouette the slumbering grove
Against a twilight sky
An arch of stars to span the cove
In dusk, now in dark they lie
In dusk, now in dark they lie

His privateer in anchored and rides
Along a foreign coast
And now his cherished guest must rise
And so must leave her host
And so she must leave her host

And a simple thing he will press her to take
A seal for their time alone
Set in silver for love's sake
A sea green precious stone
A sea green precious stone

GF:

Seána Davey played Harp on Along A Foreign Coast. We chose not to use the Cimbalom in the end.

Hopefully it has a Celtic sound like the Golden Heart era.
Knopfler, Oldfield and Gilmour is all the guitar I need.

I'm also wondering what kind of sound will dominate this album. The first two singles are more country.

I can't listen a single note of the harp on this song... I wonder why they recorded it  :hmm

That's great news, I won't have the album until next week, so, this is something to look forward to.

It has some of the GH era vibes and reminds me a bit of On raglan road, but this recording quality is way better. GH (unfortunately) sounds a little “dull” and flat in terms of audio quality. This record certainly doesn’t: it’s transparent, crisp and clear.

I think it starts with harp and acoustic guitar immediately, you can hear it in the first 10 seconds for example.
