Cultural Dessert

I am grateful to Steve Heap who let me have an advance copy of Ruth Notman’s new single ‘Si Tu Dois Partir’ – a French language cover of Bob Dylan’s “If You’ve Gotta Go, Go Now” which was a hit for Fairport Convention exactly 40 years ago. I loved Ruth’s debut album, ‘Threads’ (reviewed here in February 2008), and while eagerly awaiting the follow-up (due this autumn) I’ve been playing ‘Si Tu Dois Partir’ over and over: the sound of summer 2009. You can download it for just 79 pence from http://www.amazon.co.uk/Si-Tu-Dois-Partir/dp/B002G6HVUI/ref=dm_ap_alb2?ie=UTF8&qid=1247757506&sr=301-2
