​I grew up on a housing estate.. alleyways and ghosts. Simon Barker and I returned to the place for his film and it was almost as remembered... down the alley, behind the garages and over a trodden down wire fence to the stream.
Music recorded live in the studio with Neill MacColl, Ben Nicholls & David Tomlins.
