DUKES DE GREY JAN - CD SORCERERS/MICE & RATS IN

Popis - SORCERERS/MICE & RATS IN:
2CD. Led by the inscrutably gnomic Derek Noy, Yorkshire based outfit Jan Dukes De Grey briefly emerged in the late Sixties to deliver two of the rarest, most soughtafter albums in the British acid folk lexicon, Sorcerers and the extraordinary Mice And Rats In The Loft, before disappearing into the ether once more. Some four decades after they were recorded, both albums are finally collected under one roof, thereby charting the startling musical and personal journey undertaken by a band that metamorphosed overnight from beatific flower children singing newly-minted hymns to Mother Nature to paranoid, knife-wielding refugees from Witchfinder General. With the addition of a little-known post-band single, this vital new release unveils the bands story for the first time, featuring numerous previously unpublished photos and first-ever quotes from the newly-unearthed Derek Noy. This definitive double CD is nothing less than the complete recording history of one of the most mysterious, iconoclastic acts of the hippie era.
