HOLY THUNDERCLAPS, BATPERSON!!

Monday, October 18 (or maybe the 25th depending who's to be believed) sees the release of Thunderclap Newman's first project since 1969 - a reworking of their worldwide hit, Something In The Air. It's released on a 3-song advance EP for the forthcoming album, Pick 'N Tell. The record is produced by Simon Hanhart, of Tin Machine/Marillion/Perfect Day fame.

Sunshine In My Life, another song from the EP, will be played on Radio Six International from next week, alongside Woodstock's song Beautiful Afternoon.

What's this doing in the Woodstock Taylor news section?

The recording features two of Woody's collaborators (and therefore Cuppa Records artists) - the singer and keyboard legend Zoot Money, who takes over the lead vocals, and songwriter Pete Brown on percussion - his song, The Old Soul Singer, is also featured on the EP.

Zoot is producer and keyboard player on Woodstock Taylor's debut album, Road Movie, on which Pete is playing percussion. Road Movie includes a cover of a Jack Bruce/Pete Brown song, Make Love Part 2. Both men are lined up to work with Woodstock again on the wittily-named Road Movie 2. The above-mentioned Thunderstorm is just one of the contributing factors to an extension of your anticipation.
