From Robyn on Patreon in 2023 Although Kimberley Rew and I have played guitar off and on together for 45 years, this session is the first time we have recorded with two acoustic guitars in the studio. He’s very kindly adding his strength to mine for a crop of songs from 1967 - a year when he, too, was soaking in all the miraculous pop music that flooded the airwaves back then.
Whatever happens to you at puberty fuels you for life. We take direction from our 14-year-old selves, and follow the way their young forefingers point for the rest of our days. For kids like Kim and myself, they pointed to music - luckily enough.
I’ve written a memoir of how I went through that portal while the world outside went through a world-sized portal: ‘1967 - How I Got There and Why I Never Left’, due for publication in the UK by Little, Brown in June 2024.
To add to whatever fanfare I can muster, I’m recording an acoustic album of many of the hits of the day - the first batch of which I’m recording with Kim. The album will be available separately from the book, btw. Here is a rehearsal take of ‘I Can Hear The Grass Grow’, written by Roy Wood, which was a smash for The Move. For more about them, check out Joe Boyd’s classic memoir ‘White Bicycles’, an account how many of those songs came to be.
Acoustic guitars RH & Kimberley Rew. Vocals by RH. Recorded by Steve Stewart at Remote Farm studios. Mixed by Charlie Francis at Stwdio Penty.
