Michael Marra with Mr McFall's Chamber - Recorded Live On Tour 2010 (CD): Michael Marra with Mr McFall's Chamber - Recorded Live On Tour 2010 (CD): Michael Marra is one of Scotland's most prolific Songwriters, and a much loved & respected figure in the entertainment business.With his live performances he rivals Tom Waits in capturing quirkiness. Sitting at the grand piano, Marra delivers everything with an irresistibly gravelly voice, linking songs with lateral stories filled with pithy recollections that become punchlines.

From the Scotsman live show review " There's The Lonesome Ballad of Francis Clark for an uncle buried in the Yukon, and a back-handed football tribute based on the incongruous visit of film star Grace Kelly to Dundee United, all interspersed with show-stopping settings of Burns's Slave Lament and one for a Lewis Grassic Gibbon story called Monkey Hair that brought out the goose bumps. ....While neither he nor McFall does sentimental, they draw you deftly into a world where desire mingles with the absurd, which is all underscored by cellist Su-a Lee adding shivers of bowed saw, or accordionist Phil Alexander adding sparkles on glockenspiel or thrum from harmonium. The tour de force, an imagined visit of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo to Dundee's Tay Bridge Bar, was spellbinding.."

23 tracks (60 minutes) Live recordings from shows performed around Scotland, with ten tracks of Michael's spoken introductions to the songs and full lyrics included in the CD booklet. Totally brilliant - just like being at a great concert!
