Superb collection of new songs commissioned by music venue, The Stables near Milton Keynes, produced & arranged by Adrian McNally of The Unthanks. Thirteen songwriters and writers ranging from established artists such as Janis Ian, Ralph McTell, Nick Hornby, Steve Tilston and Ian MacMillan to new writers on the block, Hannah Moulette, Johnny Kearney, Lucy Farrell and Sarah Blasko have each submitted a song inspired by the story behind a piece of wood, 1200 of which were donated to Lone Twin's Boat Project resulting in an extraordinarily beautiful sailing boat lovingly crafted. Each song is a tiny gem arranged and framed beautifully by Adrian McNally with The Unthanks inimitable sound and style drawing a thread through the album. I would thoroughly recommend to anyone who loves a good story well told.

I am not a particular fan of folk music. I obtained this CD on the date of release and it has been on my CD player ever since. Some songs have immediate impact and some grow on you after several hearings. Considering the tracks were recorded at different times and in different places, the album has a 'oneness' which is very pleasing. I heartily recommend it.

Such an interesting project, the various singers/songwriters interpretations of the mementos and histories behind them make for fascinating listening. An album that can be listened to again and again. Great for the car.
