In the Furrows Of Common Place

by Jim Ghedi

Nickie Harte Kelly Combining original and traditional tunes on this release, Jim Ghedi has somehow escaped my notice until now. His stirring vocals, guitars and the harmonium, are supported by a quintet on double bass, violin, drums and percussion, as well as trumpet and flugelhorn. The lyrics are primarily dark, mostly focusing on social injustice and land inequity, and are passionately delivered by Jim’s expressive voice Favorite track: Lamentations of Round Oak Waters.

Davccelion In my dad's wide vynyl collection (jazz, mostly, and a handful of classical) there was always some hidden gem, like Victor Jara's protest songs or a Gwendal album. Somehow, I feel now as excited as if I were back home and had discovered one of those again. Besides, Jim Ghedi's voice has proved to be addictive to me. Favorite track: Beneath The Willow.

Faisal Jewell Ah Cud Hew is the Best Song on the Album. When I listen to it, I imagine that I'm working in a Coal Mine in Britain in the 1950s. Favorite track: Ah Cud Hew.
