Title

Adrian Crowley teams up with Fife balladeer James Yorkston to pay homage to the songs of Daniel Johnston. The album's origins can be traced back to 2006 when James asked Adrian to play with him at The Barbican  for the 'Devil And Daniel Johnston' tribute concert. In 2008 the decision was made to make an album, forsaking a studio for home recordings sent back and forth between Dublin and Fife. Recording onto weather-beaten Portastudios, the album features a baby monitor, a magpie, a smashed bouzouki and, of course, a set of spurs. The 8 songs were burned onto CDRs and sold at the Fence Festival. They sold so quickly that neither had time to get a copy.Remastered CD limited to 500 Copies.Remastered LP limited to 500 copies with CD Version and 12" x 12" artwork print.
