This guy is criminally underplayed by the lazy radio stations. Bought the download of the 9 track album originally and its been on constant play since then. It picks up perfectly where the last album left off. Live he's way ahead of the pack, only Damien Rice has equalled his quality in my eyes. On hearing the secret track, a cover of a smiths classic, I am so pleasantly surprised at how amazing it is, he takes a perfect song, does it in his own way and makes it even more amazing!!! I am already excited to hear what he comes up with next. You will not be dissapointed, I promise!!

This album is fantastic,and a great follow up to 'I Sincerely Apologise For All The Trouble I've Caused'
and just as good!!
He's a fantastic Singer/Songwriter, one of the best in the UK at the moment
and is brilliant to watch live.The tracks are fab, My favourites are 'Decimate'' Go To Hell'
'Song For The Road''Nobody''I'm Alright Now' and 'St. Peter'.
It's warm and passionate and written from the heart,fantastic voice also.
I haven't stopped playing it since I got it, don't hesitate, just buy it,
you won't regret it, I Promise :)

'Songs for the Road' is Ford's second album, following on from his 2005 release 'I Sincerely Apologise for All the Trouble I've Caused'. The album opens with a song that has been used to open David Ford gigs for well over a year, called 'Go To Hell'. It's a short, string based song, which brings the listener into the mood of the album immediately. Other songs, well known to the Ford-faithful from his gigs, follow this and it's certainly interesting to hear the studio versions of these songs.
There are a few tracks on the album which, I feel, simply don't convert to CD well from that live setting. 'Scream Down St Peter' is a prime example - a song which Ford introduced to only his most recent live sets, and even though being well received at the gigs, I feel has been let down by the studio recording.
Others though, manage to capture Ford's sheer live brilliance perfectly, and I think the first five tracks on the album, bar possibly 'Go To Hell' - which ironically was the first single - are all single worthy. 'Decimate', 'I'm Alright Now' and 'Train' are all upbeat, fantastic songs, and 'Song for the Road' is a beautiful slow song about being a touring musician, which Ford uses as set closer.
The album finishes with a brand new song which I have not heard played live, called '...And so you fell'. After an initial listen, it's not jumping out at me as one of Ford's best, but his song writing talent is such that he is consistently churning out beautiful songs, and this is not an exception - it's just not as powerful as 'Song for the Road' perhaps.
Within the weeks following my purchase of Ford's first album, I fell in love with every single track. Whether that's the case here, we shall have to wait and see, but I think it's very likely - it really is a superb CD.
'Songs for the Road' is a brilliant album. It's a step towards the mainstream, in my opinion, from 'I Sincerely Apologise for all the Trouble I've Caused', but nevertheless, this does not detract from Ford's outstanding talent and the album is well worth the asking price... I recommend it to anyone who likes music.

Seen him live and had to buy the CD. If you want a cheerful pop record stay clear, but i can say nothing bad about this album. Has not left my CD player in 2 weeks

lyrics good but...
he's a bit of a miserable so and so.. plus the music's a bit repetitive.. the same melody keeps coming back with little variety combined with the same depressing lyrics.. Read more

sublime follow-up from ford.
When `Go To Hell' kicks in with strings you know this is a far bigger effort than David's homemade debut. Read more
