- ・ Wild Silk’s double-sided classic ‘(Vision In A) Plaster Sky’ / ‘Toymaker’ has long been coveted by enthusiasts of UK 60s pop-psych. The exciting news is that now an extensive anthology of the extant recordings by this talented Luton outfit is available including what was intended for a full-length release at the time.
・ Visions In A Plaster Sky contains the released singles the unissued Wild Silk album and sundry outtakes all produced by Shel Talmy. Also included are a brace of tracks cut in late 1969 with Talmy associate Hugh Murphy when the band augmented its personnel ahead of being renamed Little Big Horn. These sport a heavier psych flavour and include an alternate mix of the current club favourite ‘Just A Game.’
・ Assembled from freshly-transferred masters and packaged with detailed notes from reissue producer Alec Palao that include the contribution of all four original Wild Silk members Visions In A Plaster Sky finally spills the beans on an intriguing entry in the British pop-psych pantheon and will delight any aficionado of the genre.
