My penultimate selection from this week's album is the haunting song The Bristol Slaver.
This harrowing Show of Hands song portrays the pain of the slave trade and how its ghosts are still heard in Bristol.

JC Album Of The Week:
Today's selection from Dark Fields is a traditional folk song, given a West Country Show of Hands twist.
Flora or Flora, Lily of the West, is a song of love, betrayal and murder, the staples of good folk music.

My second selection from As You Were is the song Crow On The Cradle.
A 1960's anti-war song that Show Of Hands have very much made their own.
With Phil Beer's haunting vocal its a very powerful and poignant song.
