‘My mother liked nothing better than being by the sea, combing the shore for treasure – shells, pebbles oddly shaped driftwood, which she would gather and hoard. In turn, this collection of songs is the result of my own beachcombing, nuggets of experience, hoarded, and transmuted into song.’

The title song from this collection was not included in the Coach Road recording session, but a version was recorded for BBC Radio 2's NightRide by Premier Cru. To celebrate the recent unearthing of a series of recordings from that time Robert Blackmore has put together this lyric video, which was simultaneously announced on Twitter and Instagram as a Words in Pictures collaboration.
