Latest Recording

Requests for ROCKING HORSE recordings and live appearances have trickled in steadily over the years despite their absence from the performing circuit. To mark the 20th anniversary of the release of the first ROCKING HORSE album, Tony, Barry and Clive decided to return to the studio and record a comeback album. Work on the album commenced in November 2007 at Mel Roux's RMS studios in Cape Town.

 

"Mel is a microphone specialist who takes great pride and care in the recording process" - Tony

 

"Three Guitars and the Truth is our working title of the new album. We picked this to remind ourselves through the entire project, that we are aiming to produce a unique and authentic product." - Clive

 

"The track list includes songs by some of the greatest songwriters of all time as well as some of our own" - Tony

 

"The album should be finished by the middle of July. The sound emerging is fresh and organic" - Clive

 

"We have added touches of electric guitar, mandolin, slide guitar, harmonica, accordion, pedal steel, Latin percussion and violin to our staple acoustic sound" - Tony

 

"A re-mastered version of our first album which was never available on CD will also be available by the time we release the new one. It’s a great way to mark the 20th anniversary of our recording career" - Barry
