Description
In this glorious 2 DVD set, Britain's finest living songwriters are captured live (on tour in Berkeley, CA), presenting two nights of their original songs, words and inimitable performance. Turning Silence into Song (Disc One) showcases a pair of career-spanning 'greatest hits', with a suitable sprinkling of new and previously unreleased material. The Liberty Tree (Disc Two) tells the story of Tom Paine's extraordinary life, interweaving Paine's own words with extracts from newspaper reports, diaries, letters and other documents of the times.
