Mystic Merlin - Full MoonU. S. first pressing, 1982, with original purple Capitol inner sleeve NM VG

with printed Swingin Pig inner sleeves

written perhaps as a response to some of the faster Mahavishnu Orchestra pieces

and the slo-mo dream rotations remain as blurred and impressionistic as they are repetitive and haunting

and devils

love and death are the three obsessions of the record

Graeme Miller and Steve Shill used minimum means for maximum mayhem

Mike Batt’s exquisite Fading Yellow and Bombadil’s When The City Sleeps

The Card Cheat

a Los Angeles-based after-school programme for children from communities and schools that lack equitable access to studying the arts or music

‘Enter Now Brightness’ is a record of poise and great beauty

The lyrics are familiar territory for the singer - declarations of eternal love

It is gorgeously ornate and antique
