The first Golden Hour Book & CD was released in 2007 by Forest Publications, part of the Forest Arts Collective in Edinburgh.
I worked as Music Editor for the 20-track CD included with the book. I also had one track featured, “Reach Into The Water”, from my first album Volume One. The track by The Gutbuckets, “Needle In The Sand Blues”, was also produced by myself, recorded one night in the Cave Studio, Edinburgh.
Copies are still available to purchase from Forest Publications in Edinburgh.
