Featured : v/a Migrating Bird.The Music Of Lal Waterson (Honest Jon's)
Lal Waterson is hardly the best known of folk singers, but over time her work has proved increasingly influential. Starting out in the early 1960s with her siblings Norma and Mike as the Watersons they proceeded to create some of the most influential folk records of the era. Certainly setting a precedent for the likes of Fairport Convention, their best was yet to come.
They disbanded in the late 60's, but reformed in 1972 and produced a recording that would re-define the entire scene. 'Bright Phoebus' featured a host of now legendary names; Richard Thompson, Maddy Prior, Anne Briggs, Martin Carthy and more. This compilation is a celebration of Lal Waterson's influential career and fittingly takes cult names from the new wave of British folk music, as well as dropping in a couple of classics.
With James Yorkston, King Creosote, The Memory Band, Alasdair Roberts, and Sideways Through Sound favourite Nancy Elizabeth all putting their unique spin on Lal's haunting songs, each one remarkably manages to take them to another place altogether. By the time the album comes to a close with Vashti Bunyan's cover of 'Migrating Bird', there's no doubt that Lal Waterson was a serious talent and will at last be rediscovered by a host of new listeners.
Migrating Bird will be Sideways Through Sound's featured album on 24/01/2008

Featured: Jozef Van Wissem - Objects In Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear (Incunabulum)
This week Sideways Through Sound will feature the incredible new album from Jozef Van Wissem, 'Objects In Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear'.
Van Wissem probably plays and composes for the most unlikely instruments in the world of contemporary improvised music: the Renaissance and Baroque lute. He has accomplished the strange feat of bridging the idiom of seventeenth century lute literature and twenty-first century free improv of the silent type. Although Van Wissem uses subtle electronic sound manipulation, he has largely stayed faithful to the particular timbre, resonance and playing technique of the lute.
Van Wissem also runs the Incunabulum label, and performs regularly around the world in duo with guitar-wizard of Captain Beefheart-fame, Gary Lucas. He also works with M.B. / Maurizio Bianchi., Tetuzi Akiyama and Elliot Sharp.

River Crombie - S/T
The astonishing River Crombie from Melbourne takes record of the week on the show this week. Here's what River has to say about himself:
I am a singer/songwriter. My songs are inspired by the folk tradition. My guitar style is influenced by the English folk and blues guitarists of the 1960's such as John Martyn, Davey Graham, and John Renbourn. I am also inspired by the music of Paul Simon and many others who have helped me along the way. Lyrically, whatever falls onto the page is what usually stays. I write the songs to stand alone - to remain in the original form of how they came to me; one guitar and a voice. I released an eponymous debut album recorded by Aaron Cupples in an old hall in Gippsland, Victoria in winter 2007.
