The newest addition to the Stockfisch Records stable is an old hand in the business. Ian Smith is an excellent guitarist, singer and songwriter with Scottish roots from the “Keadue Strand” in Donegal/Ireland, as mentioned in the song of the same name. 

He’s been in the business – and on the road – for over 30 years. The album Last Call marks his first production for the Northeim sound-specialists in Stereo DSD.

Already the wonderful opener “When It Snows In New York City” envelops the listener in folksy sounds, which cannot – and in now way try to – deny the influence of James Taylor and Joni Mitchell, and which equally in no way need to shy the comparison.
