Grandson of Morris On

Grandson of Morris On

Grandson of Morris On is a thematic album produced by Ashley Hutchings.

Twenty-six years after recording "Son Of Morris On", Hutchings put together an ensemble to play another selection of Morris dance tunes. Compared to previous efforts is this less electronic, and more acoustic. As before there are real Morris sides (Adderbury, [http://www.stroudmorris.org.uk/ Stroud Morris] and [http://www.caperingcr.eu/ The Outside Capering Crew] ) dancing with their own musicians. Although many musicians appear in the credits, only two or three appear together on most tracks. The loud punchy tune "Le Halle Place" is probably the highlight of the album. Chris Lesley has recorded Morris dance albums in his own right. The liner liner notes were written just after the events of "9/11", and reflect a certain despair at the possibility of world war. Recorded 2001. Released on CD in 2002. Running time 55 minutes 12 seconds.
