Freya Abbott Ferguson, Get Well Soon, CD No Masters Co-operative 2011 - Ltd. NMCD37
Jo Freya’s Trio is
a collaboration with Jude Abbott and Neil Ferguson (also members of the
goup Chumbawamba). Neil played too the role of sound engineer and Keith
Angel was in charge of aditional recordings. The musicians list is only
explicit on their names not on their instruments: Jo Freya, Jude
Abbott, Neil Ferguson, Harry Hamer, Andy Cutting and Belen de Benito.
Neil plays probably bass and guitar, and Jude sings and plays the
trumpet. The lack of these pieces of is information in the booklet is
very confusing. Also some lyrics are missing and, in the tracklisting,
compositions 9 and 10 are reversed. The album goes on growing:
”Two Sisters” and ”Entre le
Boeuf” are two traditionals, arranged with a great quality
and ”Mirrors” is very intense. The cover of the
beautiful Lal Waterson’s and Christine Collins’
track ”Piper’s Path” has to be pointed
out. The cover design is an elaboration of Jude Abbott.
