Parcel of Rogues (solo)
Recorded live at the 2021 Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival, a solo piano improvisation on the traditional song ‘Sic a Parcel of Rogues’. The words are almost always attributed to Robert Burns, although he did not claim it as his own. It seems likely that Burns in fact adapted an older poem, as elements of it appear in earlier published works where Burns is not credited as the author. This improvisation is loosely based on the version that appears on Dave’s 2020 release, ‘Momento’.
