Fairport Convention were pioneers of the British Folk Rock movement and one of the greatest entities of the post-war musical scene. Their former members are legends in their own right: Ashley "Tiger" Hutchings, Richard Thompson, Simon Nicol, Dave Swarbrick and the late and forever missed Sandy Denny. Meet On The Ledge is the best Fairport Convention compilation available, spanning all their studio albums between 1968-1975 and including 3 rarities (2 of them previously unreleased). The tracks have been remastered and the booklet is great with song by song anotations and an essay written by Fairport biographier Patrick Humphries.

The evolution of singer/songwriter Linda Draper's music continues to thrive with her third Planting Seeds Records release: "Bridge And Tunnel" (PSRCD-059) - produced by Brad Albetta (Martha & Rufus Wainwright, Teddy Thompson). The album showcases 10 fresh new songs further exploring Draper's signature sound - light, enchanting music with gentle, heartfelt honest lyrics. "Limbo" leads off the LP capturing the very essence of morning's first ray of sunlight. It is followed by the stripped down splendor of "Sharks And Royalty". The collection's charm continues to shine bright in the tracks "I Will" and "Pushing Up The Day" - both primed to be sure classics. A trio of tracks - "Time Will Tell", "Broken Eggshell" and "Bridge And Tunnel" unveils Linda's vibrant, melodic pop side. The LP also includes Draper's uniquely unadorned take on The Rolling Stones classic 1966 hit "Mother's Little Helper." Added into the mix are drummer Anders Griffen (Kimya Dawson, Regina Spektor, Jeffrey Lewis), bassist Rob Woodcock (see also Draper's "Keepsake" LP), along with multi instrumentalist/producer Brad Albetta (keyboards, Wurlitzer, bass, and electric guitar). "Bridge And Tunnel" will no doubt have the listener back for repeated plays with its timelessly captivating sound. A tour in support of the LP is in the works for Summer 2009.
