40 years after the release of debut EP “Religious Persuasion”, Irish songwriter Andy White is back home living in Belfast and tours the UK and Ireland May–June 2025 in support of his new live album.
The story begins with the long friendship between Andy and renowned producer John Leckie. John has mixed and produced many of Andy's recordings (including the recent AT album with Tim Finn). After one of Andy's concerts, John told him he wanted to buy an album of what he had just heard. A solo album recorded live. No band. No overdubs. "Where are we going to record it?" "The best-sounding room in the world – Studio Two at Abbey Road."
On 14th July 2023, Andy and John met at Abbey Road. John had asked Andy to write his best set list. In the afternoon they recorded the first half, in the evening a small group of friends and family arrived, and they recorded the second.
This LP contains the tracks recorded during the evening session.
