Sun Also Rises - The Sun Also Rises

SKU 05-LION631
"Another acid folk delicatessen from The Village Thing catalog, The Sun Also Rises was recorded by Graham Hemingway (vocals, guitar) and Anne Hemingway (vocals, dulcimer, glockenspiel, vibes, percussion). They were occasionally joined by John Turner (string bass, finger-picked & with a bow) and Andy Legget (who whistles on one of the songs). It features an amazing tapestry of acid folk sounds with great male/female vocal harmonies. On the sources of this record you will hear echoes of The Incredible String Band, Comus, C.O.B or Tír Na Nog, but of course delivered with the distinct personality of this Cardiff duo, very hippie-sounding with a very trippy atmosphere. It is really a delicatessen for your ears! The album was originally released in 1970, and our reissue includes one bonus track not on the original release, taken from a 1972 Village Thing sampler. Our Lion Productions edition comes with a 16-page booklet printed on FSC recycled, chlorine-free, 100% post-consumer fiber paper manufactured using biogas energy, which contains a small dose of band info, album lyrics, histories of the Village Thing and Saydisc labels by co-founder Gef Lucena, as well as a Village Thing label discography."
