Birth & Death by Jay Stansfield
An album about the transition we call Life that exists between birth and death. An amalgamation of all the music I have absorbed over 34 years condensed into 12 tracks focusing on sex, love, death, loss, breakthroughs, breakdowns and freedom.
***Each track has an image and each image is part of a bigger picture by R.S.Connett - see if you can put them all together.***
All recorded in a front room with one microphone, an old Yamaha keyboard, iPad, instruments and whiskey. Convention never suited me so I've made this album as a result. The End.
