Lead vocals,
backing instruments and songwriting duties are shared equally between
all members of the group. The stage show and album are both acoustic
(without drums, keyboards or sequencer) and feature a variety of instruments
played by Steve, Tom & Martyn: acoustic guitars and bass, cello
mandolin, accordion and cuatro - a small South American instrument that
resembles a ukelele.
The album was recorded in Exeter during December 2001 by ace engineer
Mick Dolan who also did the mixing - overall producer of the project
is Steve Knightley.
Each member of the group chose a favourite song by each of the other
two to sing - tracks that they considered best illustrated the strengths
of the others' writing. They also each chose one song that had inspired
them in the past - plus one song representing their own current repertoire:
- Thin
Green line (sung by Tom)
- Ive
got faith in you (sung by Steve)
- Wake
me up (sung by Martyn)
- Killing
fields (sung by Tom)
- You
tattoed me (sung by Steve)
- Strange
way (sung by Martyn)
- Cold
heart of England (sung by Tom)
- I will
follow (sung by Steve)
- The
flood (sung by Martyn)
- Please
Sir (sung by Tom)
- Are
we alright (sung by Steve)
- War
Baby (sung by Martyn & Steve)
