Makerfield by Alan Prosser

"Canmore" came together and was first performed at the Canmore Folk Festival in Canada. It's a beautiful place in National Parkland. "Makerfield" is just a resonant word. "Cavendish Rd." is a happy retreat for road weary musicians with Ms Jennings as proprietor. "River of Steel" came from a bad experience in Vienna and "Seymour Place" is where my heart lies. "The Move" is just a collection of riffs. "Air of Distinction"is about a certain girl with a surety of touch. "Rainy Day where you are" is part of a conversation with a friend in Finland. "East Tytherley" is another refuge...another kitchen I've sat in and played for long hours. "William and Claire"was played at their wedding. "N.E.R 1003"...relates to a friend who lives in Leeds. "Tanyardside"is the only unoriginal tune and is taken from "The Voice of the People", a collection of traditional songs and finally "The Day is Ending"...the sun going down and a warm guitar...heaven
