Prefab Sprout - The Songs Of Danny Galway

We continue playing some new Prefab Sprout. "The Songs Of Danny Galway" is also from the band's forthcoming Crimson/Red album, about the songs of the famous songwriter Jimmy Webb, whom Paddy McAloon met in a Dublin bar. Everybody should know who Jimmy Webb is, but if for some reason you don't, he's the man who wrote "By The Time I Get To Phoenix", "Wichita Lineman", "MacArthur Park" and countless other classics. The love of music has always been a recurring theme in Paddy McAloon's songwriting, and in another song on the new album, "Mysterious", he celebrates a certain Bob Dylan. And let's not forget Paddy himself, also one of the best songwriters to ever walk this earth.
