Mum's The Word
- Colin Reece -
Latest solo CD 2020
This latest album from Colin was recorded chiefly during the Covid Lockdown
months of March 2020 and May 2021 and hopefully displays that some good can
come out of the frustrations of being unable to take part in live
performance.
As usual the album features some guest musicians in the shapes of Peter Knaggs
on Electric Guitars and Bass, Steve Shorey
on Electric Guitars and Ukulele, Paul Matthews on Acoustic & Electric Pianos
and Hammond Organ, Ian Cutler on Bridge Aquila Electric Violin with Jim
Yardley on Mandolin (almost the Bully Wee Band), Deborah
Neal on accordion and Nina Knaggs on Backing Vocals.
The miracle of the Internet enabled us all to play together whilst keeping
our social distances - except for me and Debs of course.

1
Black Cat (Reece) - Featuring Peter Knaggs

Way
Below The Tide
- Colin Reece -
Latest solo CD 2017
The latest
album from Colin is another selection of songs carefully selected
from his past and more recent repertoire.
They include covers of songs as far ranging as those from Sydney
Carter, Arthur Alexander, Paul Rodgers and Tim Hardin. Also included
is a new song from Colin's dear friend John Cunningham and the
traditional Irish ballad Carrickfergus.
The album title track Way Below The Tide is a re-recording of
Colin's self-penned song concerning the Scottish Great Silkie legend that,
at certain times, seals may come ashore, remove their coats and take
human form. Originally recorded by the Bully Wee Band on the Madmen
of Gotham album, Colin felt it was time to reintroduce the song to
the world and thus its inclusion on the album.
The album features some guest musicians in the shapes of Peter
Knaggs and Steve Shorey on guitars, Marc Woodward on mandolin, John
Cunningham on backing vocals and Colin's life partner Deborah Neal
on accordion.
The
track listing is:

Good and Plenty - Colin Reece -
Solo CD
2013
With brand new recordings of three
originals from previous, now unavailable, vinyl albums, four new
originals and four covers of songs
by Steve Earle, Tom Waits , Bruce
Springsteen and Mark Knopfler, this new album is a list
of songs that would probably
best be described as a mixed bag consisting of past, present and personal
favourites.
The album features guest appearances
by my long term partner Steve Shorey on magnificent electric lead
guitar and the beautiful dulcet tones of the equally beautiful and
dulcet Karen Ann Hunter on harmony vocals.
Also featured is my late great
mate John 'Smudger' Smith with some cameo appearances on mandolin,
fiddle and guitar which were lifted from some recordings we made together a few years ago.
The
track listing is:
1
So Many Times
2
Execution Row
3
Land of Good and Plenty
4
No Surrender
5
Pilgrim

Revisited - Colin Reece -
Solo CD
2013
It seems that
most performers reach a stage in their life when they get the urge
to revisit and acknowledge their roots.
This is a newly
recorded album of songs I sang or heard other people sing, but never
got the chance to record, way back when I first realised there was
more to music than the Beatles.
The
track listing is:
1
Poor Wayfaring Stranger
2
Peggy Gordon
3
The Ballad Of Seth Davy
4
Step It Out Mary
5
Like The Snow
6
Fiddler's Green
7
Portland Town
8
The Parting Glass
The
front cover is an interesting picture of the King's Head Hotel in
Rochester, Kent and as such gives a 'nod' to the old Wish It Was A
Brewery Folk Club of the 70s and 80s, which was the time and place I
first learned to love these songs.
