2014 album from the British Folk rockers. DIAMONDS ON THE WATER is their first collection of original songs in seven years. "It was time", says fiddler Ian Telfer, "to get back to some of the other things we do best make new music and get out there on the road." These are the first Oysterband recordings since the departure of Ray "Chopper" Cooper to pursue a solo career. Al Scott, the band's long-time producer, has stepped in on bass and mandolin. What has emerged with these new recordings is a feeling of warmth, both musical and personal, that makes the songs come alive.
