Album by Robb Johnson, recorded in December 2000 and January 2001. Extremely cool and very melancholy, with a hidden track of a kid's music box playing Somewhere Over the Rainbow. Another cool track is The Petals of the Rose, being the murder of Sarah Payne given the traditional folk murder ballad treatment. There is also a translation of a Jacques Brel song, Voir un Ami Pleurer, challenging Albert Herring's assertion that Yuppy Scum is the only decent Jacques Brel translation around.
Robb Johnson sings and plays guitar, banjo and harmonica, though not all at once. He is joined by Miranda Sykes on double bass and Saskia Tompkins on cello, viola and violin (also not all at once).
