David Carroll spent much of the 1970s in vans travelling the country earning a crust from the then buoyant folk club and college circuits with folk band Spinning Wheel. The advent of punk led to a lessening of interest in older forms of music, so to supplement a waning income, a qualifcation in stringed instrument making and repair was gained, leading to a long and successful career in the musical instrument industry. Several bands, duos and solo performances followed over the years, as well as a steady fow of both live and studio session work on instruments as diverse as uilleann pipes and appalachian dulcimer as well as the more normal guitar, bouzouki and mandolin. After appearing on numerous recordings for other people the idea of a solo album fermented over several years and, bolstered by offers of help from many good friends (including all the above!) the ideas and arrangements fnally surfaced in 2022 and later with Bold Reynold Two, and , now this year Free.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracks: Sweet Jenny of the Moor \/ Hanging Johnny \/ Well Sold the Cow \/ I Will Put My Ship in Order \/ Molly Bawn \/ Down by Mount Callan Side \/ What Will We Do When We'll Have No Money? \/ The Hunt is Up \/ The Female Transport \/ The Parting Glass \/ No Man's Land\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TALKING ELEPHANT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47193216221340,"sku":"TECD529","price":14.52,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/0_82a79f6b-8f21-47e0-948c-e7f34581ddfa.webp?v=1783699246","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/bold-reynold-free-cd","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
