Front Parlour Ballads is Richard Thompsons first solo acoustic album since 1981s Strict Tempo and, remarkably, the first ever acoustic studio album of original songs in his extensive discography.
A gorgeous collection of 13 new songs featuring Thompson on vocals, acoustic guitar and other instruments and percussionist Debra Dobkin on selected tracks.
Encompassing everything from rollicking tales of quickie marriages in "Let it Blow", a lilting love song dedicated to "Miss Patsy," and the devastatingly beautiful lament of "Precious One," 'Front Parlour Ballads' is a treasure box of stories and characters, all delivered with Thompson's masterful guitar work, sonorous voice and bittersweet lyrics.
The production on this record is the kind of thing the audience actually asks for, Thompson explains. They ask for simple; they dont want the frills in the way...
Selections:
1. Let It Blow
2. For Whose Sake?
3. Miss Patsy
4. Old Thames Side
5. How Does Your Garden Grow?
6. My Soul, My Soul
7. Cressida
8. Row, Boys, Row
9. The Boys Of Mutton Street
10. Precious One
11. A Solitary Life
12. Should I Betray?
13. When We Were Boys At School
