SHOW OF HANDS Covers (2005 UK 13-track CD in which Phil Beer and Steve Knightley have chosen to perform an eclectic collection of their own favourite songs by other artists, ranging from Tom Robinson to Bob Dylan. There's a gutsy version of Lowell George's 'Willin'' and a sensitive reading of Ian Anderson's 'Wond'ring Aloud'. Mike Chapman's lament to a lost love, 'No Song To Sing', is complemented by Ralph McTell's leaving song, 'The Setting', skilfully interwoven with 'Mary From Dungloe'. Peter Gabriel's 'Don't Give Up' is genuinely moving, and the album concludes triumphantly with an acoustic 'Waterloo Sunset'. No, the album does NOT include American Pie ! HMCD12)
