The Beta Band - Shepherds Dub (Steve Lamacq's Bootleg Session)

Courtney Marie Andrews covers West Ham United's anthem "I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles".  

This track was created back in November 2015 when Courtney was trying to raise enough money to record her next album. 

She was taking paid requests for things like Skype guitar lessons, bar work etc. I asked Courtney to record a cover of West Ham's Bubbles, as I thought she'd do an incredible job - and they're my local football (soccer) team here in England. 

I Tweeted a link to West Ham's owner David Gold in 2015 and he called it the best version of Bubbles he'd ever heard... before quickly back-tracking - the *second* best after the fans' own version on the terraces ;)

Steve Mason - Dr Baker (Live at Glastonbury Festival 25th June 2010)

This was an abandoned attempt to record Courtney Marie Andrews play a Ryan Adams cover "Oh My Sweet Carolina" in the laundrette next door to Brainwash Cafe in San Francisco (where she'd earlier played a show). CMA was accompanied by Jon Berry on violin. Recorded on iPhone 4S to voice memos.

NB: I have permission from Courtney to upload my audio & video bootlegs of her.
