Nora Lee & Other Ballads
Long on the missing list, Free State are proud to present Jimmy’s re-issued, repackaged fifth album.Originally entitled simply, “Jimmy Crowley” on K-Tel Records, the work is now available with some new artwork on a digipack, cardboard replacing the earlier jewel box, bearing the title, ‘Nora Lee & Other Ballads”. Exactly as it was, the only sonic change has been a slight rise in the amplitude.
Produced by ace guitarist, Declan Sinnot, the album proclaims Crowley’s wide eclecticism with caustic urban ballads and self-penned songs finding un-likely bedfellows with sentimental drawing room and Irish-American show songs.
