Demo Recordings for The Peregrin Heart
These are rough demo recordings for a collection of songs I had once planned to make into an album called The Peregrin Heart. As you can see, there is enough material here for more than one album. Most of them are settings of other people's poetry, but a few are my own lyrics. They are in no particular order.
