Description
Basil Kirchin - Abstractions Of The Industrial North
Just three of these awesome CDs were recently discovered in box in the building where the old Trunk Office used to be. It's a classic, these CDs are not played but the cases are bashed, some have stickers on, hence the price - but you can easily replace the cases. All CDs are fine, unplayed. Get one while you can...these go for about £50 these days, very hard to find... and here's the write up:
At long last one of the most beautiful period Kirchin recordings is available. Never commercially released before this is Basil Kirchin in his "imaginary film" period. In other words it;s library music, but not as we know it. I cannot stress enough how awesome this album really is. The history of the music is simple - originally made as a library recording in 1966, it includes guitar work by a pre-Zep Jimmy Page, some sax by Tubby Hayes but names are not important here. The music ranges from blissfully sad to hypnotically weird in a pastoral jazzy odd way. This recording is strangely addictive, so consider yourself well warned. Some have said this is the best Trunk release to date, I am not saying anything. All I will add though is that it's essential and almost too stunning for words. And this CD is very limited. As was the vinyl, which is all sold out now. So hurry up and push that yes I want to buy it right now button. And get one for your friend while you're at it. And all the women in your life too. And if you are a woman, get one for the man in your life.
