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.

Composed in two instalments in November 2017, and finished in January 2018. The first instalment gave Stephen and I the general idea and the structure as well as the chords for the middle section. Doug Kinch and I, with the assistance of my sister Anna, fleshed out the storyline and the mood immediately prior to recording it a few months later.
lyrics
You are perfect as a wing,
I wouldn't change a single thing,
Under radar, Out of range,
And yet there is nothing I would change,
Sing, sing,
You tear down everything,
Revolution,
The night it all came down,
Fighitng fires all over town,
You couldn't save your home,
So you took off in a three word poem,
Sing, sing,
You've torn down everything,
Revolution
You are broken as a wing,
Broken heart and everything,
Let me be the wing for you
to take you out across the blue,
Sing, sing,
Let's tear down everything,
Revolution,
We'll tear down everything,
Revolution,
Revolution
