“As I think of you
From this dark century
It must always be
With generosity
That we both may share
The hope in hearing
That we’re not just
Spirits disppearing”

Today’s listening is ‘Work Of Heart’, the 1982 album by Roy Harper.

Actually titled as being by ‘The Roy Harper Band’, the demo versions of the songs on this album were later released as a separate album, titled ‘Born In Captivity’. A tad confusing!

Anyway, I listened to this album so that you don’t have to!

The first track ‘Drawn To The Flames’ is OK, but after that it goes rapidly down hill and stays there.

Probably Roy’s worst album?

Today’s listening is ‘Valentine’, the 1974 album by Roy Harper.

This album contains 2 classic Harper songs ('Twelve Hours of Sunset' and 'Commune'), plus a few dodgy ones (hello 'Forbidden Fruit').

You could send off a ‘stamped, addressed envelope’ to receive a lyric booklet by return. Someone must have done this in the mists of time as one comes with my copy!

The front cover art is terrible, the man looks more like Dave Gilmour than Roy H!

You can never have too much of a good thing. One of my favourite Harper albums.

Playing the original Harvest release, ably supported by the American release and the 2017 Science Friction reissue.

Lovely.

Today’s listening is ‘The Unknown Soldier’, the 1980 album by Roy Harper.
An odd Roy Harper album sonically, this one..probably because several songs are co-written with David Gilmour, who also plays guitar.
The song ‘Short and Sweet’ had also previous featured on Gilmour’s first solo album.
To me, the track ‘True Story’ almost sounds like an out-take from The Wall album!
The track ‘You (The Game Part 2)’ features a duet with Kate Bush.

Not his most appreciated album, but still a great listen. Work of heart (1982).

Nella seconda parte della trilogia di a tema troviamo "Have a Cigar". Questa è una delle tre canzoni in cui né Gilmour, né Waters cantano: la voce è di , cantante folk britannico.

Quasi di riflesso c'è questa bellissima versione dei : alla voce il compianto batterista , alla chitarra degli stra-osannati .

Il cinismo delle major è rimasto, ed è diventato stile di vita di cui andare fieri.
