David dropped by our studios for three songs (including a rare acoustic version of 'Babylon') and a VERY interesting chat...

Together with guitarist Neill MacColl (son of Ewan and half-brother of Kirsty), David treated us to a spiffing acoustic rendition of 'Babylon' from his hugely successful White Ladder album, together with a couple of tracks - 'Fugitive' and 'Draw the Line' - from the album of the same name.

In what turned out to be a very honest interview, he also had some extremely interesting things to say about recent developments in the Music industry...well worth a listen!

Draw the line is another step along the musical path that I follow with such interest and enthusiasm. Dave takes me to such varied places and emotions with each new album.........Can't wait for the next already.....and what about that take on Babylon ;0)

A very honest interview David thank you. It makes me realise how much you get from live performances. I will cheer twice as loudly next year when you come out again.

Nice stuff. Is it just me or does he sound a bit like Van Morrison on this number?
