As
you will no doubt read on the back of the CD you are about to or have
recently bought:
"The selection on this album is a mix and match of the music Widdershins
has been playing for concerts and dances in and around the North East
of England for a number of years.
It contains music from the Celtic tradition, some contemporary tunes
composed by the band members or friends of the band.
Most importantly it is the stuff we enjoy playing and that we hope you
will enjoy listening to."

The album was recorded at the studio of Charles
O'Connor in Whitby.
As a member of the popular and influential Irish folk rock band Horslips,
Charles developed his excellent musicianship, his studio skills and
his outrageous sense of humour making him the ideal man for the job.
Charles was partnered by sound engineer Paul Whittaker himself a talented
performer, teacher and session guitarist. Paul heard things we hoped
he would miss and some we never even knew were there.
