WATCHING THE TRACKS: MUSIC INSPIRED BY THE BOOK (2019)
|
The music on this 8 track set was inspired by my book, Watching the Tracks, a surreal novella which is available as a paperback and ebook. There are 8 chapters and a track to go with each, which hopefully conjure up some of the mood of the story.
Songs produced, written and performed by Chris Wade, recorded in March and April 2019. Get the book to go with the music here: http://wisdomtwinsbooks.weebly.com/books.html

""One of the year's cherished memories." - Shindig
"If there’s any God, D&F should be massive." James Turner, Classic Rock Society magazine "The Call is yet another remarkable album by a remarkable artist, one of the best this country has to offer. How much longer is it going to take before the world realises that?" - Pennyblackmusic "The songwriting is of the highest calibre. If the laid-back ‘Summer Of Love’ dreamy days of 1967 still move you in mysterious ways – then ‘The Call’ should be at the very top of your on-line shopping list – if not, you need to chill out a bit more." - Get Ready to Rock "Why this band is not gracing the covers of the mainstream music press is a mystery. Perhaps it is only time; discover them now so you can say you knew them back when. To these ears this is Dodson And Fogg’s best thus far. The amount of ideas in this album is staggering and there is more invention in these tracks than most bands manage in an entire career. Your record collection is a sadder place without this album. Trust me." - Active Listener "A resounding triumph." - Rocksucker "With each successive release the extended inventiveness and undiluted creativity that personifies Dodson and Fogg surpasses the previous offering.And I think it's only time before a lot more people come to appreciate Dodson and Fogg." - Folk Words

"The album is full of wonderfully constructed tracks, proving that Wade may be the best of all the one man band do-it-yourselfers releasing records these days." - Shindig!
"The last time a songwriter released this much great music in such a short space of time, is when George Harrison unleashed his masterpiece All things Must Pass on a post Beatles world." - DPRP "Wade is a major talent. Catch him now before the whole world notices that fact. It's like discovering music for the first time. The album Pink Floyd would have made if the band continued with both Barrett and Gilmour on board." - Pennyblackmusic "Belongs in a genre of its own. Inventive and enjoyable, eccentric. It's also thoroughly British and proud of its roots, as it should be." - Sound of Confusion "Wade seems to have an uncanny knack for plucking classic sounding songs from nowhere." - The Active Listener "Each time you listen something new pops its head out of the rabbit hole to tempt you in." - Folkwords "A melting pot of exceptional music." - Get Ready To Rock "Will absolutely blow you away. Brilliant." - Roomshaker
