Some details of an album which I came across when searching for information about Alex Gifford's 'Morecambe Bay'.
There’s a strong green thread running through the album, too. It’s topped and tailed with different takes on environmental damage: the poignancy of Land and Sea set against the cheerily scathing Coming in Further.
Human damage to the natural world crops up in a number of the songs here, like the concertina-backed whaling chorus song Nantucket Sleighride, with its updated conservation message, or the acapella Do You Remember?, cataloguing 25 years of environmental decline.
