The “B” side is Red Dust Overture. Both songs have very strong Consett connections: “Father” being about how once generations followed each other into the same trade. “Dust” is from the musical Steel Town.

This CD single is taken from our forthcoming album: The Long Fade. To hear news about release dates and shows sign up to our newsletter by going to our website at www.steve-thompson.org.uk or go to www.facebook.com/thestevethompsonband
