Knowing some of the musicians on this recording, and having recently met a few more, I’d want to buy one of these. Where can I get one from ?

You have mail! 🙂

Should anyone wish to buy this cd but are not likely to bump into any of the musicians on it any time soon then you can now also find it on Footstompin’:

Don’t consider this a sales pitch - more of a public information announcement. 🙂

Sound clips from the first three tracks are now available at Footstompin if you follow the link above.

There was also a launch for the album at St Andrews in the Square on Saturday night. Here are some of the photos from it:
