As his dark-hearted, foul-mouthed alter ego Rod Stern, urban ’n’ western troubadour Alan MacFeely is a treasured live fixture of the annual Tapestry Festival. This LP, recorded live at The Victoria in Mornington Crescent, showcases not only his outrageous (fictional) tales of drinkin’, fightin’ and whorin’ – which both parody and pay homage to the Cash-style, C&W confessional – but also his genuine singing and songwriting talents. ‘Country Boy’? You ain’t never heard one quite like Rod Stern.
