about

These are the 7 tracks the band and I recorded live in the studio shortly after finishing the 'Duel' album in spring '89 just prior to an Italian tour. At the request of a new Mexican label I recently made some subtle additions (flute, percussion, low cellos etc) as the original tracks were raw and sparse. As it now looks as if that Mexican 'Duel' reissue will not be released after all, I offer them here for your pleasure, as Mr Ferry and friends once said.

Robyn Hitchcock
by Robyn Hitchcock

I shared a label with the Soft Boys back in the early 80s and was seduced by 'Underwater Moonlight' on first hearing. Privileged to have Robyn guest on my 'The Puppet Master' and 'Mad Elaine'). Paul Roland

London Stone

This man never releases a weak album. Love them all. Heavy stoner rock to whimsical psych, bursting at the seams with strong songs and totally wired psych guitar. A killer, no filler. Paul Roland

For almost 50 years Marc inspired and energised me. Privileged to have been managed at one time by June and to have written 4 biogs - trying to capture what made him my main man. Paul Roland
