Colin McCaffrey's third solo CD Tired Of Town is a vintage sounding record with covers of classic old tunes by Merle Haggard, Hank Williams, Fats Waller, as well as the bluesy title cut and 3 other new originals. Also included are a cover of Pete Sutherland's Wilderness Road and Lewis Franco's September Son. Colin recorded this one the old fashioned way: live with vocals and guitar at the same time. He couldn't resist going back and doing some overdubbing, but the production is sparse and clear. Colin's voice sounds rich and smooth through an old RCA ribbon microphone... [More info]
