Finally managed to grab a copy of Lawrence/Mozart Estate’s latest masterpiece, Tower Block In A Jam Jar. I’ve played the tiniest part in the making of it. Quite possibly the first time banjo got used on a Lawrence record…🪕

Our last shows of the year. Come and say hi! x

@marcrileydj Thank you, Marc! Much appreciated. The gig at the Albert Hall felt real special.. happy to show you those chords next time I’m in Manchester 😉. Px

You all nailed it mate. What a fabulous band… and for me a fabulous session and gig at the Albert Hall (the real one - in Manchester). Happy memories being made right there. Keep on keeping on mate… and one day maybe you can teach me James T’s solo on SIMPLY THRILLED HONEY! 🤨

Safe at home. What a great time we had! An emotional tour. Thanks for letting me be part of it, @EdwynCollins. Love ya. Px

This is fucking great. It just is, isn’t it? -Edwyn lnk.to/CrimesBayview?…
