Half baked (CD)
Originally released in 1970, Half Baked was the second and perhaps best known album by one of Liverpools finest musicians, JIMMY CAMPBELL. Previously a member of The Kirkbys and 23rd Turnoff (who recorded Campbells Michaelangelo as a single for Deram Records), Campbells followed up his 1969 debut album Son of Anastasia with this masterpiece recorded for VERTIGO records. Featuring music of both beauty and melancholia, the excellent title track and the marvellous Dont Leave Me Now this newly re-mastered CD release also includes the track Lonely Norman from the 1971 Vertigo sampler Heads Together, First Round. As with the music of BILL FAY (another songwriter whose work enjoyed a re-evaluation in recent times), CAMPBELLs work is ripe for rediscovery. Recently hailed by MOJO magazine as a buried treasure, this re-mastered CD release is long overdue as tribute to the work of JIMMY CAMPBELL who sadly passed away in 2007.
