'Field of Crows' is ready...Fish his new CD has arrived. The master is at the plant and CD's are being made right now. Time to preorder - or order this new gemm (about 20 euro) on the site. Because only fans can hear it now... Retail has to wait till May 2004.
It also might be a good idea to stop by this place very often ...touring is going to happen and there has been talk about a gig in Belgium.

31/10/2003

'Field of Crows' will be a single CD. Fish said "There will be no bonus disc as I am not planning to sell the album until I have finished copies on their way back from production plants. I don't see the benefit of putting out a bonus disc of material that was not good enough for the album and would rather just concentrate on making a great album.". He also said "Tour looks like starting in the UK on Feb 17th"

16/10/2003

Fish has announced that soundbytes & lyrics from Field of Crows will be put on the "Field Of Crows" site - the link is in the menu

" The album is still on line for a recording finish by the end of October and mixing at a major studio in November. With studio time at Ca Va
in Glasgow booked on the 8th November we are on line to have a finished album available on mail order in December. "

Soundbytes can be heard on the FOC website on this page http://www.fieldofcrows.com/soundframe.htm
Lyrics are also available
Please note that this is still in working stage and that the final mix isn't done yet. This is not how they will appear on the CD. The clips are in (low bandwidth) streaming audio (you'll need RealPlayer for this) and there is a downloadable MP3 to each clip (the yellow link).

For the DVD's I will be adding direct (hit) links to TCScotland merchandise pages so all details can be accessed.
