Reviews
Review in TYKES, by Nigel Schofield
Peggy and AJ tour together each November. This collection of ten songs is a summation of seven years of doing so. AJ has a keen eye for observation, a sharp wit for writing and a knack for turning phrases, evident in titles that make you wonder “what on earth could that be like? viz Routine Love, Irishman In Paris and Let Me Tell You How It Works.This is not a reproduction of their stripped-back, seated live sound – aside from mandolin, Peggy plays electric and bass guitar; La Belle Julia Porter, who co-wrote the songs, adds piano and strings; Adrian Black provides entirely apt clarinet and Mark Walker plays chimes. The songs benefit from these added dimensions. Try the full-on rock sound of Until the Wall Comes Down or Life’s got its own agenda, a song that could only otherwise exist if Jake Thackery had been transplanted to Basin Street! There are songs that make you smile, songs to make you think and songs for which the only reaction is “yes – exactly”. How can you resist a line like “I lost my religion in a poker game”? The songs are all direct and involve you immediately, but the craft in writing, subtlety of narrative and deftness of observation all reward repeated listens. Even after one listen, those skilfully coined phrases will leap into your head – and you’ll thrash around to recall where it’s from…and when you remember, this album ends up in CD player: it’s an endlessly repeating cycle. Earworms that never get earworn.

A little book what I wrote. it's not 'Great Expectations' of course and is unlikely to be made into a movie - for regular cinemas anyway - but it means well. It's a collection of observations about Ireland, music, children, religion and marriage served by a Belfast boy on a scurrilous bed of material I have used I stage over the years and somehow got away with... until now.dare.

Anthony John and Peggy have been touring together each November for ten years now. Perhaps you have enjoyed one of their 'Music and Mirth' evenings? This is a collection which highlights the musical friendship and the joy and emotion they both bring so effortlessly to their performances.
