TONY CARO & JOHN / トニー・キャロ&ジョン 商品一覧

以前SHADOKSから再発された幻想アシッドフォークの究極アイテムがジャケットを変更し新装LP再発。サイモン・フィン~シド・バレットに直結する諸行無常なサウンドは他に類を見ない素晴らしさ。昔出回った再発LPに付属していた7インチは今回は付いていません。Gaarden Records is proud to present our latest vinyl release, a reissue of the obscure, yet classic psyche folk gemAll On The First Day by Tony Caro and John. Originally released in 1972, this album was somehow buried in the 'stuff drawer' of time to be recently rediscovered by those inclined to look. The inclusion of a few tracks on the British Love Peace and Poetry LP compilation was what first caught the ear of we that tend the Gaarden. Baltimore friends Beach House also chose to include a cover of the first track 'Snowdon Song' on their debut album, retitling it 'Lovelier Girl'. Somewhere between the whimsy of The Incredible String Band and the stark beauty of Vashti Bunyan lie Tony Caro and John. But it is better when Tony tells it. Fans of Fairport Convention, Incredible String Band, Pentangle, Bert Jansch, Espers, Vashti Bunyan... enjoy.""All On The First Day by Tony, Caro and John was first issued in 1972, the result of a one year burst of creativity triggered by a lucky encounter between us - three hippy folkie musicians and our first decent tape recorder... A lot has been written about the sixties and seventies as a social phenomenon, as a time of upheaval of values. However, at the time we had no idea that we were in some kind of historical transition. We were just being there. For all we knew, the eighties and nineties were going to be equally radical, or maybe there was not going to be any eighties and nineties at all. Vietnam was still raging, the Cold War was at its height, and nuclear destruction was just around the corner. But man, did we have a lot of fun. The only rule was anything goes, everything is equally valid. The songs were recorded by John on a Ferrograph tape recorder with track-to-track facility - quite low tech even for the time, but the best we could do with almost no budget. The machine allowed us to overdub in mono but only by rerecording the backing track each time. That meant you had to play the part right and mix the backing track in at the right level all in one go - tricky even on a good day. Luckily we didn't know the rules or we probably never would have started... After a while we figured enough people had told us they liked the tracks, and that we had enough outlets through friends, clubs etc., to put it out on a record, so we saved up our cash, chose our favorite tracks at the time and had them mastered at Eden Studios in South London. We pressed 100 copies, we sold them quite quickly, then moved on..." --Tony Dore
