Chris has rightly been raving about The Autumn Leaves recently. I had forgotten just how marvellous their Treats And Treasures set was, and have been playing it a lot the last couple of days. It fits right in with my Kinky obsession. I can’t believe it is already eleven years old. If you have not already slotted it into your collection, now is the time to fill that gap. Whilst you are at it, what about picking up the 2002 The Twilight Hours Of The Autumn Leaves and the new (out this month) Long Lost Friend set? I know I will be. File next to The Sneetches, East Village, TV Personalities, Rain Parade, Byrds et al. In other words, file under ‘Delicious’.
To celebrate all of this, here is the postcard that Andrea sent advertising the release of that Treats And Treasures set. And here is ‘The Light Brigade Of Fireflies Are Dazzling Midnight Suns’ from the Do Not Fear The Future label compilation from Grimsey which is apparently still available from here. Now let’s all go buy the damn records already.
this is possibly the best postcard i have seen! i love all the grimsey artwork - do you know if andrea's behind everything? i wrote to the grimsey address a while ago, but never got any reply. hope it got through though!
