Limited edition of 318 hand-numbered copies on GREEN VINYL! Now reissued is a Welsh cult private pressing rarity,originally from 1974. Farmer and part-time musician OliverChaplin recorded this mind bending album on a portable 4-trackTeac reel-to-reel machine, assisted by his brother Chris, anexperienced BBC engineer who was involved in sessions with a.o.Syd Barrett. Oliver sang and played acoustic and electricguitars, and plenty of effects were used to create a veryunique kind of DIY mutant-psychedelic-blues (think CaptainBeefheart) which sounded years ahead of its time. Though theoriginal LP was pressed in an edition of only 250 copies, it caught the attention of a.o. Virgin Records and J.J. Cale, butOliver decided not to get tangled up in the music industry. 'Standing Stone' is recommended to fans of a.o. CaptainBeefheart, Syd Barrett, Fresh Maggots, Comus, Magical PowerMaco and Brian Eno. This vinyl reissue comes with a thick sleeve, a download code, an obi, rare photos and liner notes by Richard Allen..
