It's a collection of memorable rock songs with deep roots. Oysterband have forged a style that owes much to the traditional music of Britain yet rarely draws directly from it. Eight original songs (and two trad.) built on integrity, passion and human emotion.</font>Sun, 12 Oct 2008 08:27:33 -0500http://oysterband.calabashmusic.com/#album_32580
