SKU
23-Eclec 2139
This features the fantastic 'lost' Hatfield track "Your Majesty is Like a Cream Doughnut/Oh What a Lonely Lifetime", which was originally on the "V" sampler and has never before appeared on CD. The first half of the complete output by this Canterbury supergroup, bringing together members of Egg, Gong, Caravan, Matching Mole & Delivery. Phew! One of my all time favorite bands.
"New remastered & expanded CD release for the classic debut album by the Canterbury scene's finest with bonus tracks; one of which is completely new to CD! Recorded for Virgin Records in 1974, Hatfield and the North was the eponymous debut album by the band comprising former Caravan member Richard Sinclair, keyboard player Dave Stewart, guitarist Phil Miller and drummer Pip Pyle. Regarded as one of the finest albums in the Canterbury genre, the album also featured guest appearances by Geoff Leigh of Henry Cow and Robert Wyatt who sang guest vocals on the track Calyx. This Esoteric Recordings reissue adds both sides of the band's 1974 single and the tracks featured on the Virgin sampler album V and previously unreleased on CD as bonus tracks, together with a booklet featuring restored artwork and notes by Sid Smith."
