Description

 "In the words of the album's cover: Eight works of Mr. Edward Lear, spoken with the utmost gravity by Mr. Ivan Smith, and set to music of the most nonsensical nature by John Sangster. The music has Sangster's signature sparseness, reminiscent of his 'Lord of the Rings' albums, even 'Ahead of Hair', but with a much more Modern sound. Doug Gallagher's on drums and Tony Gould plays piano, and there's a long list of more notable jazz musicians including Bob Barnard, Bob McIvor, John McCarthy, Tom Sparks, Mal Cunningham, Paul Furniss, Graeme Lyall, Roy Ainsworth and more. Cool funky vibes and sitar interplay on 'The Akond of Swat'. There's also a great breezy funk vibe on 'Incidents in the Life of Uncle Arly'. Avant-garde in parts swinging from more straight ahead swing to down right funky jazz sections." (Time Warp)
