After the breathtaking debut album of The Blues Project, sometime lead vocalist Tommy Flanders seemed to disappear off the face of the earth! A couple of singles appeared, actually recorded by his former band...and then this strange, muted example of what nowadays is referred to as wyrd folk, but not so long ago was just seen as Skip Spence or Syd Barrett without the laughs! The faded, melancholy vibe herein is somewhat unsettling, as the ghost of a fairly straight acoustic pop album is dimly apparent, and Tommy's voice still sounds occasionally as positive as it did on his earlier "Violets Of Dawn”. There is a mystery to solve here…what will we find? This is the first time ever on CD for this enigmatic artist with wonderful state of the art re-mastering. Featuring breathtaking art work and a chance to finally read the story of the mysterious Tommy. A must for all fans of the twistier byways of folk-related musics; from a time when major labels let one get away with that sort of thing...
