John Armstrong & friends: ‘Down by the River’
John invited Alan Dearling to preview his latest musical release


Alan Dearling adds:
“This is a rather lovely and quirky round-up, a sample of John’s worldwide music. I particularly loved the ethereal, floaty, gentle and lilting composition, ‘Flow like Water’ with Beana on vocals… And, ‘Valle del Reay’ is an extremely atmospheric, Spanish flamenco-styled piece, with a nice plaintive female vocal edge, plus exquisite guitar playing from Vernon Bigsby… ‘Faded’ explores Alan Walker’s melody, which is often a crowd favourite with John’s audiences. Nice piano opening, well-paced. Romantic and sympathetic – a lovely, cleverly balanced recording with Lindsay’s vocals kept at just the right level in the mix.”
