Pete Morton
Flying an Unknown Flag (Harbourtown)
$14.99
2005 recording of Pete's own material. Pete's vocal and guitar are joined by Roger Wilson (fiddle, guitar, mandolin), Neil Segrott (bass) and Chris Parkinson (accordion, harmonica).
Pete's a consumate songwriter, thoroughly "English" in context, and tells great stories of characters real and imagined without the usual singer-songwriter penchant for self-indulgence and self-reference (or is that -reverence?). He delivers them with heartfelt vocals that are never about the singer, always about the song. With the added instrumental backing of this one, he offers one of his best recordings to date.
