Exciting news!
I've been chatting with an old band-mate of Paddy McAloons, a great guy by the name of Roy McCalvey.
Roy was the bass player in the band "Avalon", which was Paddy's band just prior to Prefab Sprout, and Roy had mentioned that he co-wrote a song with Paddy during the Avalon days, and he has been kind enough to allow us to re-record it for the project! The song is called "Coming Home", though this era is pre-Prefab Sprout, Paddy did write some great songs during that era ....... songs like "Walk On", "Tiffany's" and "Strange Silhouettes" to name a few, and all of them were played live by Avalon.
I've been given the privilege to finish up the song a bit and bring it a little more "sprout forward" - which I am delighted to do!
.......... keep checking back here or on our facebook page, there may be some additional BIG news posted soon...........
