Product Overview
Stephen Fretwell - Busy Guy (CD) After an absence of 13 years Stephen Fretwell announces his long-awaited third album, ØBusy GuyÙ, released via Speedy Wunderground. Described by Fretwell as Üa song cycle of sorts,Ý the album examines the seasons of a life, exploring fatherhood, grief and rebirth, with FretwellÙs trademark eloquence and wit. ØBusy GuyÙ was produced by FretwellÙs close friend and Speedy Wunderground label boss, Dan Carey. They recorded the whole thing one hot July afternoon in just two hours. ÜI was so fired up, I just rattled off the songs,Ý Fretwell says. ÜI assumed it was the run-through, but Dan said he thought weÙd got it.Ý The next day, Carey assembled Üa palate of soundÝ involving keyboards and an electric guitar. ÜDan said, ØIÙm just going to react to the songs over the next few hoursÙ, and thatÙs the finished record, besides some cello.Ý TRACKLISTING 1. The Goshawk and the Gull 2. Remember 3. Embankment 4.
