Toshiba EMI Pressing 2004 Limited Edition Paper Sleeve Remastered Bonus Tracks English SSW Former Soft Machine bassist, this is his 1st solo album released on English Harvest. Characterized by his low-pitched vocals sung in a mumbling style, with unique and elaborate arrangements featuring brass instruments. It has a quirky pop-rock feel, but I don't think it's the type of music that everyone will like. He quickly left SM, which started with psychedelia and increasingly incorporated progressive and jazz elements, and moved to Ibiza, Spain. He retired from the front lines and lived a laid-back hippie life. Rare sessions with Syd Barrett can be heard as bonus tracks. "Joy of a Toy" List Price: ¥2571 #KevinAyers #CDDVD
