LONGFELLA CD
SPECIAL GLASTONBURY EDITION

In advance of a formal release and to co-incide with his role as this year's official website Poet In Residence, Tony has selected 20 of his most popular poems for a limited edition Glastonbury Festival 2011 cd.



Priced at only £6 (which includes UK P&P) this is the first ever chance to own professional recordings of Tony's work.  Rabble rousers, comedy pieces and some of the most moving poems on the UK poetry scene - they're all here.  Find out why Tony's journey to becoming "one of the UK's most renowned performance poets" has won him reviews like this along the way:  

"Some poets can make you laugh, a few can make you cry but only a handful can do both.  By all accounts, Tony Walsh is one such poet  "...taking audiences on a rock 'n'' rollercoaster ride from comedy to tragedy, from the deadly serious to the seriously deadly." Splitting your sides AND breaking your heart? Be warned - this guy should come with a health warning!" Glastonbury Festival, 2011

"The Fly is a music magazine, for sure, but in Tony Walsh’s lone voice, we discover more music than a thousand orchestras could muster. Utterly mesmerising and unforgettable... " 
The Fly magazine, Big Chill 2009

Masterful and empowering, a people's champion of poets, Tony Walsh is renowned as one of the UK's leading voices in performance poetry. Tony speaks to the heart of the nation with a Manchester twang and a touch of Indie wildness."
