Malcolm Morley was an original member of Sam Apple Pie, before forming Help Yourself, who recorded 4 superb albums between 1971 & 1973. He subsequently joined Man for a brief period, appearing on one of their finest sets, 'Rhinos, Winos & Lunatics'. In 1976, he recorded his only solo album, backed by Ian Gomm (ex-Brinsley Schwarz) and Plummet Airlines. These master tapes were lost for over 25 years and were unearthed recently by Ian Gomm (who also produced the album) and are now released here for the first time. The accompanying 8 page booklet features comprehensive liner notes, including an interview with Malcolm, and several rare photographs from Malcolm's own archive. Literally a lost gem, this album hearkens back to the unpretentiousness and honesty of the first Help Yourself and Ernie Graham albums. Its release is another step back towards the public eye for a songwriter whose melancholic poetry can plumb the very depths of the human soul as movingly as other more recognised troubadours such as Gram Parsons or Nick Drake. The accompanying 8 page booklet features comprehensive liner notes, including an interview with Malcolm, and several rare photographs from Malcolm's own archive. HUX034
