McMullen from the Terrascope writes: "The past is littered with fine
little bands whose names live on fondly in gig-goers memories but left
no recorded legacy. ( ..) Sugarbush Records are therefore to be
congratulated for having the foresight to release this wonderful LP,
limited to 150 copies.
Having played festivals for fifteen years the band with Whaley, saxophonist Aaron Liddard, vocalist Doug Southall, drummer Toby Baron, and bassist Jonty Bankes, finally got into the studio. It’s taken a while to put together, but I for one am very glad that it exists at all, particularly for the excellent ‘Amazing Place’ which is the kind of complex, infectious number which would have been the highlight of any live band’s show back in the day, and ‘Road’ which (like several of the pieces on here) has a similar funky vibe to the fondly remembered Welsh band Alcatraz. If you like your festival stage to be draped in funk, jazz and space-rock, or have fond memories of bands of this ilk, then this is the kind of album you’d queue up at the merch table to purchase afterwards.
150 copies only pressed (surely this will be mega collectable?) on grey vinyl with sleeve and exclusive insert designed with DALE SIMPSON (Greek Theatre, Green Ray a.o.). To listen please scroll down a bit further for a track from the album, which is one of most varied and eclectic sounding discs we have released so far!
