| Almond makes gentle on the ear,
smooth, tuneful music, with words that are full of stories and meaning. Simon and
Garfunkel, James Taylor,
Joni Mitchell, Tom Paxton, Janis Ian, Roger Whittaker - it's in a similar
neighbourhood. Comments made about Almond After a recent concert ..... 'real music with real feelings'.....'It was a pleasure to hear you and we look forward to see you again'.....'Thank you very much for the wonderful, emotional evening'.....'He has a good voice, and plays a passable guitar, but the point about a show by Almond Greenway is that you can have a fun and interesting time. He has been around, and had a rich and colourful life, and he knows how to share that with the audience between the songs, this is really where he scores over some of the younger performers talented though they might be.'

Three of the songs were un-know to him before the event so he learned them, and after the wedding recorded them. The recordings amounted to an Album, with 5 songs made with other musicians, and the same five songs just with guitar. The couple were happy to pay for the performance at wedding, for the time he spent learning the new songs, and for the making of the CD. We made some copies for the wedding guests. It actually seemed like an idea other people might like, May be it would be possible to do this 4 or 5 times a year. So if you have a special event, and would like something unique to mark the party and celebrations, He would be happy to consider the ideas.
