28-UNIJ1422984.2
Excellently done reissue of this very twee psychedelic pop album from 1967. This CD includes the entire album in both the original mono and stereo mixes, some of which have some significant differences, as well as a previously unreleased version of one of the songs, as well as three single B-sides.
"In view of the commercial appeal of much of this multi-instrumental duo's music, it is surprising they did not achieve greater recognition. Patrick Campbell-Lyons, who came from Ealing, had previously been in pre-July band Second Thoughts. Their debut album The Story Of Simon Simopath, a science-fiction pantomime, was an early attempt at a rock concept album. It contained some finely constructed pop songs, including the harmonious Pentecost Hotel (later issued as a single), We Can Help You (issued as a single by the Alan Bown Set), the catchy Satellite Jockey, Wings Of Love, which was later issued as their sixth single and a couple of more mellow songs: Lonely Boy and Never Found A Love Like This Before."-The Tapestry Of Delights.
