The new record is called Compañeros and it was released on Friday 18 September. Ian describes it as ‘One of the most listenable records we’ve ever made, an album with a twist, full of exceptional songs’.
Companeros has been a unique project in that the songs have been collected by Ian over 27 years and have their provenance in the many musical comrades he has met down the years (hence the album’s title).
There’s 4 songs from Ireland, 3 from Liverpool, 2 English, 1 Scottish & 1 Cornish. The CD booklet gives full information on Ian’s relationship with each wonderful tune.
The album ends with a nine minute, live in the studio, recording of Pele/Amsterdam classic ‘Name & Number’.
- Town And Country Blues
- My Name Is Dessie Warren
- Mississippi Beat (with Pauline Scanlon)
- What Am I To You
- You Can’t Win Them All Mum
- Derry Gaol
- St. Patrick’s Brave Brigade
- Johnny & Marie
- Conscience
- Spare Change
- Name & Number 2016

Ian will personally sign your CD to you or any name you request.

Just order them and it will be done automatically.
Just got to http://www.amsterdam-music.com and its all there fella. Any trouble let us know.
Have pledged £12 for the album, but how can I be a pain in the arse and amend my order to add the When in Rome CD for an extra tenner?
Looking forward to Companeros!
Thanks,
Simon.
Sorry, I meant ‘can I be a pain in the arse’!
Apparently a certain person I’m married to says I can be, quite often!
I pledged for the lyrics of Fireworks…how do I submit address details?
Your address should be on the Pledge Kev but send us an e mail detailing what you want anyway and we’ll sort it.

I have ordered the when in Rome and companeros package.is there anyway of adding a hand written lyric sheet to this for an extra donation??
Yes sir just send £25 to the Amsterdam PayPal with a note saying which song and we’ll sort it.
Any copies of ‘When in Rome’ left? I thought I’d ordered this and ‘Companeros’ but have only got Companeros??? Ta, Carole

please, 13 South Road, Drayton, Portsmouth. PO6 1QB. Thanks! Simon.
Thanks Simon, looks like i’m sorted ^. Carole
Arived and sounds great. Surproised that the When In Rome CD didn’t receive the “Regal Prowse Scrawl” though.
ANy news on the reissues of Attitunes, The Curse and the original live DVD as yet??
The beauty of Pledge. May never have hear Mississippi Beat otherwise. A serious contender to DTTSOM or Home….cheers for another great album.
Are any of the house gigs available? Regards, Louis.
There sure are. Can you contact ianprowse@hotmail.com to sort. Ta!
