It is difficult not to overstate the historical importance and charm of this quintessentially English psychedelic folk private pressing recorded during 1969, a year renowned for producing a plethora of ground-breaking material. All eleven songs are self-composed and performed by Greg using melancholic guitar to accompany a darkly eccentric vocal delivery to strange effect. The subject matter of the quirky songs is predominantly concerned with self-examination and curious introspection towards a world full of confusing ironies and sequential, enigmatic happenings. Those who cherish Nick Drake, COB, Leonard Cohen, Colin Blunstone etc, will simply adore this timeless, brooding masterpiece.
