Release Notes:
--------
James Yorkston was the first member of the Fence Collective to emerge from the
creative oddity that is the East Neuk of Fife. His first solo show was
supporting Bert Jansch, his first tour was supporting John Martyn. After those
heady heights he went on to sign to Domino and record his debut album in a damp
soaked cottage in the Scottish Borders. Domino subsequently released this
record, Moving Up Country, which went on to become Rough TradeÆs Album of The
Year 2002.
James was invited to play a John Peel Radio 1 session in 2003 and was labelled
"the finest songwriter of his generation". He has gone on to forge a career as
one of ScotlandÆs most respected songwriters, releasing 5 further critically
acclaimed albums.
This 10th Anniversary Edition of Moving Up Country, consists of two parts. The
first features the original album, including the debut Domino single 'The Lang
Toun'; Part two is a collection of Moving Up Country demos, including never
heard before demos and the aforementioned Peel session originally broadcast on
Jan 2nd 2003.
