Described by Ralph McTell as “one of England’s best voices”.

BOB FOX THE BLAST TSCD555

These are the words of Producer, multi award winning, John Tams. - " Bob Fox has rightly occupied high office in the ranks of great North Eastern singers and the decision to reduce the division of labour to it’s barest, a painstakingly devoted singer and magnificent guitarist, and a 'bloke behind the glass' was one of the best experiences of over forty years of recording. This is Bob Fox holding his ground, a stand alone album from a great stylist."

• "At last, the record we’ve been waiting for – that astonishing guitar technique coupled with one of England’s finest voices" Ralph McTell

BOB FOX BORROWED MOMENTS TSCD544

Described by Ralph McTell as “one of England’s best voices”, Bob Fox makes his first recording for Topic, and we’re delighted for him to be here. He is one of the hardest working performers in the country, playing more dates than almost anyone else.

His exceptional voice and inspired guitar have a lightness of touch and a sureness of purpose that go straight to the heart of the song, be it traditional or contemporary.
