ship to shore

Stunning debut album from 1976 by this legendary/cult UK folk musician. Originally issued as a private pressing, 'Ship To Shore' combines 6 and 12-string acoustic guitars with electric textures, effects and unusual soundscapes, culminating on the haunting progressive-folk 11 minute title track. A folk-rock/acid-folk masterpiece highly recommended to anyone into John Martyn, Nick Drake, Michael Chapman, Bob Theil, Pink Floyd. Mastertape sound, insert with photos and extensive liner notes by Richard Allen. "... A pure simple, thought provoking, frightening and uplifting collection, it evoked timeless themes of environmental concern, spiritual surrender, natural wonderment, doubt and love all woven into a sparse yet entirely original acoustic folk sound." ~Richard Allen (Freak Emporium).
