Settings of Shakespeare and related works

1,1 Postcards From You recorded 1991 Nick Webb A beautiful song of Nick's which never got used.
2,1 Feste's Song recorded 1991 music Nick Webb also sung and played by Nick
3,1 Blow! Blow! Thou Winter Wind 1991 music Simon James
4,1 Hark! Hark! The Lark 1991 music Steve Baker

These are studio versions of settings that we did for the recording 'Nothing But Love' and the video 'If This Be Love' based on the show devised by Sylvia Syms of the same name. These arrangements were, for one reason or another, not used for the final recordings. Feste's Song from Tweflth Night is sung and played by Nick exactly as he used to do it live in Sylvia's show, in which Simon often also performed. He just happened to be passing by when we were recording these songs and popped it down, really for our reference as the basis for an arrangement, but it sounds so good that we have included it in all its original glory.

The musicians involved were as follows:

Vocals - Debbie Hay and Peter Nardone (and of course Nick Webb)
Sax on Postcards From You - Mark Lockheart
Flute on Hark! Hark! The Lark - Katherine Baker
Keyboards - Steve Baker
Guitars - Simon James, except Feste's Song - Nick Webb
All programming - Steve Baker and Simon James
The DML choir!? all of the above
