Paradise Square

Never Thought I'd See The Day

Singer/songwriter Pete Ryder was a key player on two of the most rare and sought-after private folk albums from the UK, the LP's by Paradise Square and Cair Paravel. Paradise Square was his first project, a group formed at Sheffield University's Christian Union in the early '70s. In 1974 the band released its only album as a private pressing of 100 copies (five stars in the Pokora book). Expect fragile, home made lo-fi psych-folk with acoustic guitars, violin, delicate male and female vocals, X-ian overtones and hints of The Incredible String Band and Dando Shaft. The reissue comes with remastered sound, a repro of the original insert, plus liner notes by Shindig! magazine's Richard Allen.
