GLG BAND - Both Side Of The Pond

Next up, a new CD from THE GLG BAND, led by George L. Goodfellow, from Hawick. As an aspiring songwriter, he joined the Tennessee Songwriters Association which led to him making contact with an exiled Scotsman, Jim McParland who asked George to collaborate with him on some of his lyrics. A few contacts on the other side of the pond, and the GLG Band was formed. “Both Sides Of The Pond” (Smallboy Records) is their fourth album together.
All 13 tracks on the album are originals from the band. The arrangements are simple but effective. The project was recorded and produced in Bristol ,Tennessee (where The Carter Family recordings were made) and finished off in Galashiels at David Little’s Sound Studios. The songs range from the catchy “I’ll Put Me Life On The Line” and “Maybe In Time” to the slower “Number Three” or “More Than Welcome”
“Without Doubt” and “He Was My Friend” are the two tracks which stand out for me, and most likely to get a bit radio play.
