CROSBIE, ALASTAIR - Learning to Draw

I have always written songs but it didnt really occur to me to make an album of them until earlier this year - sent home from work due to a heavy snowfall (which was causing intermittent power shortages), I blew the distinctly non-metaphorical dust from my acoustic guitar and wrote Count Your Quiet Homes". Over the next week or so, this and a further 4 songs were recorded, two newly written and two from the pile I had accumulated. I mentioned this in passing to Andrew Paine and he expressed an interest in hearing the results. So, over the following three or four months, "Learning To Draw" was created with my usual succession of rejects, re-recordings, re-workings, remixes, remasters and the like - the change in musical format certainly didnt change my recording habits...There are 17 songs and they pass in a little under 39 minutes. In a way, this is the most experimental album Ive made.-¢?¬ù -¢?? AC.
