Far and Forgot - From The Lost Lands

by Francis Lickerish

supported by

Nickie Harte Kelly Here is essentially classical music that includes electric instrumentation, brought by a founder of The Enid, and superbly done. A concept piece that tells of an ancient world, complete with enchantments (and disenchantments), wizards, and fae. A female vocalist with a stunning voice decorates some of the pieces. Also note: Secret Green’s To Wake The King is also a fine listen. Favorite track: Seeds of the Sun (A Lament for the Hedgerows).

Sven B. Schreiber (sbs) Sometimes the "old guys" still are the best... Francis Lickerish? Oh, yes, 1976... founding member of "The Enid" - the purest incarnation of symphonic rock... co-wrote many tracks on the first four albums with Robert John "The Great" Godfrey... after a seemingly endless span of time he returned to the music, and bestowed on us a most marvelous opus that sounds more authentically like 70's Enid than the band's later works themselves. Words are just not enough to describe the beauty of this music. Thank you so much for making me feel like I'm on holidays in the region of the summer stars! Favorite track: The Disenchanting - i) Willow Hill.

They played a wonderful set at Summer’s End in October 2018 which was based around this album . For me it was one of the sets of the weekend. The record is a wonderful permanent reminder of the show. Tony Honour

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis. Carsten Pieper

Though only their third studio album release, these veterans have been around for almost fifteen years--and they keep getting better with each release--which is hard to manage since their quality of compositions, performances, and production have always been top notch. A band that really should be heard! wafiii
