Terry Stamp

Notes

Well here I am still sucking down air. I will be 59 in June, many years and far away from the twelve year old Twickenham kid learning to play skiffle songs in his bedroom and listening to them on old seventy-eight records on my parents’ radiogram.

Firstly, all credit for this CD that you are holding goes to Alistair Murphy, Faith Davies, Jim Avery and the musicians performing on it. Without their time, energy and love of music, past and present, you would be holding another CD in your hands.

For me, Alistair's production and arrangements of the songs included here are simply stunning. I just thank God it is myself "doing the vocal part".

I wrote and recorded the "basic tracks" of these songs, (vocal with acoustic guitar) as far as I can recall, mainly during the nineties, in Los Angeles, some being home demos, others studio demos, songs that I really thought would never see the light of day.

So pull on them headphones, everyone included here has left a few pointers for some future generation, saying, "that's how we were, we were born that way".
