Here's a thing of beauty. I've been playing it all Sunday morning. For years, I was obsessed with finding a copy in good nick and when I did I played it non stop for a month or so, filed it away and forgot about it. I'm glad I've rediscovered it. It's a jazz record of sorts, not of the free blowing variety but a wonderfully melodic trio recording. The playing is beautifully restrained throughout. Sunday morning music my dad would have called it. I've always liked the cover. It looks oddly futuristic and nostalgic at the same time. On the back of the record it says the photograph is called 'Three Lions' which has always confused me because I can't for the life of me see a single lion on it. The link above is for the French issue which I found online but I much prefer the cover of UK issue from 1967 which can be viewed below. I hope you enjoy too.
