New live session video - The Lamentations of Round Oak Waters - recorded at Black Bay Studios in the Outer Hebrides.
The 2nd song to be released from my upcoming album is a live session we did in the studio on the Isle of Lewis. The song was inspired by the works & life of the late English poet John Clare and takes directly from a poem of his titled ‘Lamentations of Round Oak Waters’.

I am loving this reference to John Clare, who really should be more widely known for his work. I really admire the rage he had against the enclosure of the land in the 1800s, a process which began this nation's obsession with land ownership and property that we have today. His work is still so relevant. I love the themes of social history in your work :)

Thanks Cheryl!

[@jslorr]

This is absolutely stunning. I love the use of the bass beat behind the penultimate verse to build to the final. Can’t wait to let students studying Clare’s work hear this.

[@TheJimGhedi]

Amazing. Let me know how it goes down!

I did John Clare's poetry at school and have loved him ever since. I was really pleased to hear this.

So powerful ....... so good Jim

[@kailastrebuchet4970]

That's pretty cool. Trebuchet magazine did a bit on John Clare's 'Tresspass' which echoes graffiti in a big way. The man saw it coming.
