“lyrical inspiration, daring instrumental tracks that shine. 8 out of 10” – Uncut Magazine

“entirely original acoustic folk sound, some of the best acoustic music in the UK” – Shindig! Magazine


“An undoubted musical maverick, there is something profoundly elemental about his music” – R2 (Rock n Reel) Magazine

Papa Echo Alpha Charlie Echo
A cry for Peace. Live studio session.
NMJ – guitar/vocals and Steve McDaniel – piano.
Haunted by this song since he wrote it in 1980 NMJ decided it had to be revisited the way it was written, with piano and no overdubs. This live studio recording was filmed and is the first of a series only available as downloads direct from this site.
Download income will help continue this live series. Poor payments dictated by online corporates mean many artists creative survival now depends on direct sales. Enjoy the ‘free to view’ You Tube film and as a fair barter for this artists work please buy the high quality Wav or MP3 download here. Thank you.
