DOUBLE CD IN DELUXE MEDIA-BOOK PACKAGING WITH 32-PAGE BOOKLET. An old man looks back on his life, chasing his memories through the years.

Who is Kelver Leash? Over four acts and 20 songs, the decades unfold.Decades is a collaboration between singer/songwriter David Palfreyman and writer/actor Nicholas Pegg, who describe the work as "a great big double concept album with all the trimmings".

Together with producer/engineer Ian Caple (Tindersticks, Suede, Tricky, Kate Bush), they have created a double album which entwines Palfreyman's music and lyrics with Pegg's linking narrative, building into a meditation on the fragility of time, memory, and personal history.

Lead vocalists on the album include Sarah Jane Morris , Cassidy Janson (currently playing the lead role of Carole King in musical Beautiful), Ian Shaw (twice winner of Best Jazz Vocalist at the BBC Jazz Awards), Mitch Benn and Jessica Lee Morgan.

Other musicians include Gary Barnacle, David Clayton and Terry Edwards. Linking the songs are dialogue scenes featuring an all-star cast headed by David Warner (Titanic, The Omen, Time Bandits), Richard Coyle (Coupling, Prince of Persia, Born To Kill), Jacqueline Pearce (White Mischief, Plague of the Zombies, ), Jan Ravens (Spitting Image and Dead Ringers), and Simon Greenall.

David Palfreyman, who released his debut album RadioMagnetofon in 2010 under the name Malf, has toured extensively in the UK, Europe and the USA.

Nicholas Pegg's writing credits include stage shows, audio plays, and the acclaimed book The Complete David Bowie.
