Wonder if "Let's Move to the Country" will be a new version of the Knock Knock song.

Very probably, he played it on his last tour.

[Smeraldina Rima]

That should be out next Monday now isn't it funny how time flies. Half way through and the whole thing has been going well. The latest one "The Mackenzies" is a musterpiece.

Protest Song

The Mackenzies

See I'm the type of guy sees a neighbour outside and stays inside and hides
I'll run that errand another time

[spaghetamine]

Such a beautiful voice, Bill is the man. Just listening to Pigeons at the moment and this is a Callahan classic for sure, looking forward to checking out the rest of these new tunes. I don't remember vibing with Shepherd in a Sheepskin Vest much but I don't think I listened to it more than once so it may well deserve a revisit.

[Heid The Baw]

Agree on Bill's voice. It's great. He does a backing vocal in Only Skin On Joanna Newsom's Ys that sends a tingle up my neck.

[Head Gardener]

just been sent his reworking of Let's Move To The Country, it's very lovely
