Before There Was… Shadoks 054 CD £12.99 Reissue of the third and fourth albums (1977/79) from this fringe English folk/psych/prog player, with connections to Richard and Linda Thompson, June Tabor et al. Anyone who digs Pete Fine’s North Star will go for the bursts of iconoclastic electric lead guitar here, married to a bunch of glazed folk/prog songs that seem to orbit a barely-articulated tradition of outsider English songwriters like Julian Cope, Roy Harper and Nic Jones. Other parts sound like a slightly more sophisticated Arthur Lee and Love. Comes with four bonus tracks and an interview with Stevens. |
