LIFEBLUD Esse Quam Videri (2020 UK 10-track vinyl LP on Seelie Court, a new archival label home to ultra rare British titles dating between 1965-78, all sourced from a private collection, expertly remastered with audio restoration courtesyof Reynolds Mastering. Serene folk-inflected progressive rock, the songs Oakenshade and Waxing of the Moon are poetic genius, using a guitar with a damaged bridge to create a sitar like drone, the vocals having an air of resigned melancholia and the lyrics connect with a mystical understanding of and reverence for nature. Limited to just 500 copies, gatefold picture sleeve)
