Official reissue for this obscurity of british progressive folk, licenced by Tony Durant.
With an unusual and unique line-up -a male typical rock trio with a female classical strings trio- Fuchsia made this gem in the late 1971. Moving more on the rockier side of the 70's progressive scene than on its folk one, the band created a completely original sound with complex arrangements and "multi-rhythmic" patterns, excellent musicianship, charming melodies and lot of adventurous musical ideas.
The extra single contains two tracks: "Ragtime Brahms" is an unreleased –on vinyl- recording from 1972 made by the original line-up and used as a demo for the band to secure a new recording deal (which never came real). "The waves" recorded in 2010 and it's the precursor of a new album which will be "out" soon by Tony Durant and the revamped Fuchsia band. This song really follows the spirit of 1971!!!
