A folksinger on Gabriola Island, British Columbia named Bob Bossin has got a bunch of folk heavyweights together to cover Scott Cook’s ‘Pass It Along’ for Earth Day, including Peggy Seeger, Leon Rosselson, Pharis & Jason Romero.
At the end of the Scott Cook’s booklet for ‘Further Down the Line’ there is a preamble memoir in which he quotes Bruce Cockburn “Kick at the darkness ‘till it bleeds daylight.” This album kicks hard.
The ragged quintet comprised of fiddler Alastair Caplin, singer-songwriters Scott Cook, Nathan Ball and Jez Hellard and double bass maestro Nye Parsons have turned the domestic gig into something of an artform as they demonstrate on ‘Live at the Ley’.
