Synopsis

Album Description
Yorkshire's Moonkyte only made one album, and though it was supported by John Peel, who wrote the effusive sleevenotes, it sank without trace when it appeared on the tiny Mother label in 1971. Now, with originals changing hands for hundreds of pounds, Sunbeam is giving it to be a great lost British acid folk gem and an absolute treat for all lovers of acid folk and psychedelia. 2005.

CD Reviews

For Some this will be A Five Star
zphage | 10/19/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)

"1971 UK Incredible String Band influenced acid folk with much more commercial leanings.



There is a whimsical feel with off kilter vocals and instrumentation (flute, hand drums, harmonium, etc) ala the String Band but coupled with big production Moody Blues like harmonies. So for some this will not be pure/raw enough but for others this will fit the acid folk ticket. The songs are tighter than String Band tunes with much more overt hooks.



This is very enjoyable. Considering how some bands nowadays strive hard for this effortless sound.



Another great UK Sunbeam records reissue."
