Description:

Ringing The Changes by Maddy & The Carnival Band Prior, released 11 January 2019. This version of Ringing The Changes comes as a 1xCD. -

Despite forays into other musical styles and influences, it has been their unique approach to Christmas music that has proved the enduring theme of their work together. Their semi-regular Yuletide live show has become the highlight of many a seasonal period, featuring festive favorites played on medieval and modern instruments. Ringing the Changes is an apt title for an album that sees them creating all self penned material. Thus there is the Jamaican gospel of 'Wake Up!' and the beautiful introspection of 'Bright Evening Star', both dealing with the traditional story of the virgin birth. 'Stuff!' (featuring a guest turn from Monty Python's Terry Jones) looks at the thoroughly modern custom of retail frenzy and panic buying.

Terry Jones appears courtesy of himself. Recorded at Warehouse Studios, Kennington, Oxford. Thanks from Steve to Jo, the Gaffers and John Hagger. Thanks from Steno to Michoux, Martin Crabtree and Pete Oxley. Thanks to all at Park Records: John and Nico Dagnell, Rosie Morton & Kate Shirley, Peter Head, Will Sansom, Bob Prouse and Hollie Coe. Introductory text to track 2 by Edgar Mitchell, USA astronaut. Track 8 includes 'The Pipe On The Hob' and 'Calliope House'. Track 12 includes 'Tea For Two'
