this title is no longer available from Strange Fortune
A debut solo recording from an outstanding Scottish singer/songwriter blends the best of creative acoustic folk of multiple eras, complete with slight mystical touch that makes this sure to catch some interest here at Strange Fortune...
"Like A Buzzard Chased By Crows" is the debut album from the Fife based singer-songwriter James Reid. With a love for the Autumnal pastoralia of Nick Drake, forays into the woods, homemade wine, and the legendary Wickerman soundtrack, Reid combines these passions to deliver his own lo-fi folk sketches of the beautiful, and sometimes strange, rural landscapes and hedgerow habitats of his native Scotland. Armed with acoustic guitar, mandolin, a broken-down dictaphone, some demijohns and blessed with a golden larynx, Reid weaves melodies and atmospheres that draw favourable comparison to contempories like Greg Weeks and classics such as Drake's "Pink Moon" and David Crosby's "If I Could Only Remember My Name". "Like A Buzzard Chased By Crows" features cover-art by Reid himself, is packaged in jewel cases and limited to 200 copies.
