In Their Phrases: “Andrew and I wrote this tune collectively about 20 years in the past. It was the primary of Could and we spent it within the solar, selecting fiddle tunes, flowers, and getting within the groove with the mycorrhizal community. This melody revealed itself to us within the early afternoon, setting the vibe for the remainder of the day. I’ve at all times discovered this tune beguiling. It’s exhausting to place your finger on its temper; to me, it’s in the end hopeful, nevertheless it has to undergo rather a lot earlier than it will get there! I’ve recorded ‘Could Day’ 3 times now; every model may be very completely different. I can’t appear to steer clear of this tune! It was so fantastic for John and me to have the prospect to collaborate with Andrew, Adam, and James on this launch!” – Chris Coole, the Lonesome Ace Stringband
