If you would like a copy for £5.00

In 2005 a CD was released (together with Finish The Story) called ‘The Sampler #05’, which contained a collection of tracks I had recorded and played on. This received some great, flattering praise and reviews…see below.

In 2007 a  limited release of 100 CD’s of The Sampler #05 was originally released as an exhibition promo give-away in September 2007. These discs were numbered and have the exhibition stamp.

Review – Finish The Story – The Sampler #05

Live footage of Finish the Story at Exeter Art College Feb 1983 mixed with 8 track studio version from 1981/2, some new images, original sequences and ‘lost’ shots – such as the bedroom doorway from the farm (R.I.P) and very early footage of Nicola at farm window — not wanting to play! Even very rare footage of me playing guitar live.

This is a glimpse at my past!

They have packed up their gear and are off to play in the Landmark Theatre in Ilfracombe – better get ready to go.

Saturday 30 April – 18:00
This Bristol based 4 piece were born out of the reverberant exhoes of the 00’s post-indie electronic obsession. Building on their folky roots they have developed a has resulted in a harder, edgier sound that screams from the bottom of its lungs to be heard.  Alms take stock of a wide range of influences from Radiohead to My Bloody Valentine and blend that with winding counter melodies and addictive guitar hooks.
