It's Remembrance Sunday. And while my mate Ron lays a wreath on behalf of the British Legion in Ware, Mario Manerim John Quick and I offer this new transatlantic collaboration (Italy-US-UK). Dressed in my recently deceased grandfather's smoking jacket, I ponder his photo, his exploits and that of my other grandfather, who served six years in the Royal Navy as a volunteer during WW2. D-Day, Anzio, the lot. And say today, to all other things..."Not Today"...lest we forget.
For Bert Calver, 1927-202, and Patrick Mulcahy, 1915-2007.

Out today, half an hour ago, The Yahwehmen's debut album release, "Lion Hearts". Winston Churchill once said "100 hours in the library, one hour in the Commons". This album took two years to research and two months to write and record. Hope Winnie would approve. That's my grandad, Albert Henry Calver, 1927-2021, driving Field Marshal Montgomery in Cairo, 1944. Lion Hearts. He plays a few licks on the harmonica. He was brave back in his day so I must be brave in mine. And pull the plank out of my own eye while I'm doing it. I know, harsh but fair. I'm not a well man. So I'm paid to do nothing. Except live off you. I can't do that. So, everything I do is for free download. This album honours our Christian traditions, folk lore and the fallen, because you have carried the lame (me) this past decade. Thank you. In case you hadn't noticed this is written in English. Lest we forget. God bless. For Bert, Steve and Black Jack Johnny. JF

New single alert!! The Yahwehmen's latest offerings - "Lion Hearts" and "Eyore" are out today! The former is a 13th century appeal to the modern day Robin Hood. And the latter, a bucking yet melancholic rocker. As the new album's finale, "Eyore" bids a reluctant farewell to 33 years on stage. The new album, "THE EMPEROR'S NEW NOSE", will be released in November.
