WOODSTOCK GIGGING WITH THUNDERCLAP

Jan 17 2006 sees the official launch at York House, Twickenham, under the banner of Richmond's Eel Pie Club, of Pick'n'Tell, the album from Thunderclap (featuring Goodmoney). This will be followed by a series of live dates at various spots around the UK.

Woodstock will be joining the live band as a backing vocalist, and will also be performing a short set of her own songs as part of the show.

Due for release on Jan 31 on the Speakeasy record label, which is distributed via Pinnacle and Voiceprint, the CD boasts Zoot Money on lead vocals in a new collection of songs by Pete Goodall (guitarist in the original Thunderclap Newman touring band, who has kept the rights to the name) and Pete Brown, who also plays percussion on most of the tracks. On sax, the late Dick Heckstall Smith makes one of his last recorded appearances.

The CD also boasts the critically acclaimed remake, produced by Simon Hanhart, of Thunderclap Newman's 1969 hit Something In The Air, again with Zoot on vocals.

See the gigs page on this site for more details of the tour, and check out Woodstock's blog to see how it's going.
