Verified Purchase. His first album released under his current moniker, "Smoky Bay", saw the light of day in Since then two more albums have appeared. As a matter of fact all of these compositions are perhaps a tad more low key than can be expected, where words like careful, delicate and frail describe the contents quite nicely.
