Description

The English squeezebox maestro John Kirkpatrick delivers another splendid new album for Fledg’ling Records (his eleventh for the label, if anyone is counting).

John Kirkpatrick is one of the finest entertainer’s on the folk scene, described by Shirley Collins as “English music’s mighty heart of oak”. His recent albums have all had some kind of theme – songs from the World Wars, songs about farming, songs from Shropshire, songs about Christmas, original tunes he has composed, tunes for morris dancing, a record of duets. This time around he has recorded his current live favourites (and a couple of untried ideas) – Coat-Tails Flying truly is a sensational and occasionally poignant musical feast.

“The breadth of his repertoire is quite astounding, pervaded by a great sense of humanity, a true and very fine representation of the common people that most of the songs and music came from.”
