Description
There seem to be a good many records in the vinyl ether being described as Loner, Downer or Outsider Folk. While I wouldn’t be as presumptuous to think I could define what those terms actually mean, I can say with some certainty that the tracks below may well fall into one (or both) (or neither) of those categories. Written in that strange place in time where the hangover of 60s hippie idealism cast a long shadow across fading rainbow skies and the thought of a cold nuclear wind blew into the grey concrete depression of the mid 70s, these are 21 tracks that document environmental yearning, lost love, and a creeping uncertainty of what tomorrow may bring.
