The other four albums are albums Josh has greatly enjoyed over the last five years and they are by highly professional and original artists with things to say and unique ways to say them - they're also top people. They're all on Bandcamp and Spotify so you can listen to the music there but why not take advantage of this great value deal to bag five top quality discs at an excellent value price. All five performers have participated in the Paul Simon Project, a video project Josh has been curating over the last few years documenting performances of Paul Simon songs by great Irish musicians - a few of them aren't uploaded yet but will be during 2020.
The price includes post and packaging and each CD will be posted individually because of the current restrictions in Dublin, Ireland regarding getting around - this will also allow you to discover the delights within in its own time.
Please support quality original music.

Life is not so bad as you're might think. And other people are probably having an equally horrible time. A positive song about the blues.
lyrics
The rain it falls on all of us just the same,
Just the same,
It doesn't discriminate,
It skews the angles of who and who not to blame,,
Pretty well, Momentarily,
The sun returns to shade us a finer hue,
Me and you,
And all of our families,
I must realise I am not the only one who cares,
I must be there, I must be there,
I must resolve to always be the friend to you,
I must be true, I must be true,
I must be true,
I never know my enemies or their ways,
There they go,
Moving on out of sight,
And if they lose the trail and they can't track me down,
Who's to say if they're winning their guessing game ?
Who's hiding in the corner ?
Who gives a damn ?
I'm out on my own, I'm out in the rain,
I must realise I am not the only one who cares,
I must be there, I must be there,
I must resolve to always see the friend in you,
I must be true, I must be true,
I must be true,
