'Men In Prison', was recorded live in Bergen Men's Prison, Norway in 2000. A million miles away from Johnny Cash's exuberant prison recordings, the Norwegian prisoners were impassive, watchful and considered in their response to a great performance, but their gathering warmth is palpable and their appreciation heartfelt at the end of a blinding set of songs. Recorded live in 2002 at Cafe Muffathalle in Munich, with long term Jackie collaborators Michael Cosgrave [multi-instrumentalist] & Deborah Greenwood [vocals], 'Munich Blues' includes much excellent and typical Jackie humour. Both albums are recorded to the highest professional standards, as might be expected of two countries with a significant interest in obtaining the very best from artistic endeavour.).
