Show notes – Four Winds

Again, it’s been a while, but we’re back with another episode of the Lightning Seeds Podcast. As we’re doing this in chronological order, we are focusing on the follow up to Tales Told and this time we’re back to a Lightning Seeds album. Sort of. Four Winds, as we discussed, should have been another Ian Broudie solo album until record company antics got in the way. As such, Mat and I are doing “It’s great, but is it Lightning Seeds” for each song.  Carry on reading below and see our rating each song out of 5 strawberries for their Seedsiness.

Here’s the album art. It’s the original 2009 CD release, and it’s long out of print. Don’t expect to see it back in print any time soon. Also seen here are the promo CDs for singles Ghosts and Don’t Walk On By.
