BLOSSOM TOES
We Are Ever So Clean
Catalogue no: SBRCD / 2LP 5035
 |
|
Released at the height of 'flower power' in 1967, We Are Ever So Clean is widely considered to be the finest popsike album ever recorded. Produced by Giorgio Gomelsky (discoverer of the Rolling Stones and the Yardbirds), it's a fascinating amalgam of whimsical pop, music hall humour and acid rock. Much bootlegged over the years, this is its first official reissue, timed to coincide with its 40th anniversary. Produced with the band's full involvement, it's presented with no fewer than ten bonus tracks, encompassing non LP singles, demos, out takes and live performances, and comes complete with a full colour 12 page booklet incorporating many rare photographs and a comprehensive band history, as well as an introduction from the band's leader, Brian Godding. |

“Bears the influence of heavy California psychedelia and Captain Beefheart in its intricate, interwoven guitar lines and occasional gruff dissonance, leavened by close harmonies and sparkling guitar interplay” – Richie Unterberger, www.allmusic.com |
