JOINT ::: A BRAND NEW CD FROM HOLYGROUND
JOINT
is a new CD which collects together tracks from Holyground past and present, and tracks from friends who have recorded with us. There are 18 tracks - all outstanding songs from the relevant CDs. From early Bill Nelson, to a song especially recorded for the release, this is a lovely album to listen to for 73 minutes, though we say it ourselves!

It features CHARLIE SPEED, CHRIS COOMBS, THE WIRES, STEVE CHANNING, ANDY WELLS, CHICK SHANNON & LAST EXIT, NATHANIEL GREEN, PILGRYM, PYLON, BILL NELSON, THUNDERMOTHER, & MUSICS FROM HOLYGROUND.

On Thursday October 14th, following an idea from Andy Wells, Holyground recorded, just for JOINT, a special version of "So . . .", a Mike Levon / Chris Coombs song from the CD & Strangeness And Charm. Released just two weeks later, it's the fastest release ever for Holyground: A - Austr took nearly 2 years!

We gathered together as many people from
JOINT's bands and performers as we could. They are: CHRIS COOMBS, from various HG albums; ANDY WELLS and KEVIN MULVIHILL from Pilgrym; AL QUINN from Bill Nelson's Global Village; STEVE CHANNING from Tears On The Console, and his forthcoming release Heart Of The Storm; CHARLIE SPEED from Gygafo and his solo album Sugarhills; ROB TAYLOR from Pylon and Nathaniel Green; SALLY DOVER, flute player from In and Out of Time; and MIKE LEVON, from, er, Holyground !

JOINT is available, in very limited quantities, for sale on the Holyground website, at a very nice price : £7.99 (plus post and packing as usual).
