W
hile driving down some motorway last year I realized I wanted
to make an album in New York. I wanted to work with US jazz
musicians, tap into a different water and sing a different song.
It was a dream. I was on a motorway somewhere towards the fens.
So, when I shared it with Philip and Kim at Linn and they said: ‘Why not?’ and
‘Let’s do it!’, a ball started rolling and I had to learn to balance on top of it –
and fast – because when I shared all of that with my US manager Gail Boyd,
she said: ‘Why not do it with Laurence Hobgood?’ And I said: ‘Wow! Are you
kidding me? That man’s fabulous.’ She then brought Laurence to see me
perform in New York and when we chatted after the show, he appreciated
what I was doing and said lovely things, and I thought he was the bees’ knees.
So we started hanging out, and drank a lot of coffee, and wrote some things,
and suddenly we were in a glorious joyful collaboration and the ball had
become a transatlantic magic carpet!
And here it is. The upshot of all of that: this recording. I’m inordinately
happy to have found another Englishman in New York, Michael Olatuja who
is on bass, and to round off the transatlantic seesaw, another American, the
wonderful Wilson Torres who is on percussion. We recorded at Sear Sound,
up there in midtown, on a hot and humid weekend in early July, when it was
SO hot that the local Starbucks ran out of ice! And it was hot inside that
studio too - but in a good way. So the tracks were laid down and then,
in London, the wonderful photographer Steve Ullathorne and I made a trip
to a secret park to make the photographs, and Greg had been along at the
recording session and he’d clicked us in situ in all of that. And the songs?
Well, this material is all about hope – and dreams – we need so much more
of them now. ‘What The World Needs Now Is Love’, and ‘Shelter From The
4
Storm’, and some ‘Sisters Of Mercy’ – the memory of what might have been
with ‘Woodstock’ – plus our own songs, which we’re continuing to add to,
over the coming year. So come with us. Come ride our camel towards the
oasis. I hope you’ll enjoy the journey, and come hear it live, and leave smelling
the grass, hearing the sea, feeling the warm breeze on your face, and whether
your feet be in the gutter, or not, seeing the stars.
