COWAN RENDERS THOMPSON CLASSIC FOR BOX SET
Debra Cowan has contributed her version of Richard Thompson's song "Has He Got a Friend For Me" for a bonus CD in an upcoming box set CD package, entitled RT-The Life and Music of Richard Thompson, celebrating the British singer/songwriter icon's considerable career. Debra is best known as a singer of traditional songs. She is, however, a huge Thompson fan and regularly includes his songs in her set, and
recorded this track especially for this collection. The box set will be released on UK recording label Free Reed Records early in 2006. A complete
track listing can be found at www.richardthompson-music.com/boxedset.asp
Upon hearing Debra's version of the song, Thompson said, "Wonderful - just the way it
should be done....it works really well, I like the American accent on
it: gives the song a new layer - shades of the Shangri-las" .
