You might call this a belated follow- up to Brady’s 2007 Common Ground (LRP) and the 2009 Zeitgeist (Fresh Sound New Talent), but with a pleasing addition in the very individual sound of Winstone on nearly half the material. Brady and Redmond are still Ireland’s go-to team for backing everyone else, almost regardless of style, but the drummer’s writing, which was less featured on those previous albums, turns out to be quite intriguing. The US-Midwest-based Carrothers, who brought some of his own material to Zeitgeist, pours his sometimes quirky invention into interpreting both Brady’s originals and a couple of standards, with the hypnotic title-track (the Swedish for ‘alone’) containing Bill’s quotation from ‘Lonely Woman’. Winstone’s contribution arrives only gradually, with one Brady song and later a wordless theme-statement on Jarrett’s ‘Southern Smiles’. The final track ‘The Night We Called It A Day’, a Carrothers favourite, is just a duet with piano enveloping voice in a polytonal lament.
