New #review today: Hot on the heels of the #FruitsDeMer retrospective An Introduction to #UsAndThem, the band has just released an EP of cover songs that did not make on their 2022 album ... and I Observed the Blue Sky. The four songs are covers of Nick Garrie’s 1969 song “Can I Stay with You?,” The #Zombies’ song “Beechwood Park,” #ThinLizzy’s “Little Girl in Bloom,” and #TheTrees’ “The Garden of Jane Delawney.” #ExposeOnline #AcidFolk #FolkRock #PsychedelicMusic http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/us-and-them-we-count-the-evening-stars-6.html

Trees - "On The Shore" (1971)

I heard "Polly On The Shore" on the radio yesterday and was reminded of this album. Intense drumming on this one, almost Krautrock-ish in parts.

@kawulf @design_law. Hear hear! And #TheTrees is one of the most amazing books I've read in the last several years. I also loved #IAmNotSidneyPoitier (and #Erasure)!#bookstodon, #litstudies

Yesterday I gave myself a rare sofa day and read a book in a day #TheTrees by #PercivalElliot. Comic and brutal by turns it is ultimately extraordinary. It distills down to a list of names that seem to still rise from the pages of the book as it sits closed on my coffee table. They will haunt me for some time yet. 'Rise, rise!

@kimlockhartga @kimlockhartga Well, my most recent would be #TheTrees by #PercivalEverett
So, the maples formed a union and demanded equal rights.
The Oaks are just too greedy.
We will make them give us light.

@Abibliophobia I was *raging* with #TheTrees, which started out so well and then went (in my opinion) all self-indulgent
Wandering through bookshops to buy a few Christmas presents I saw #TheTrees by #PercivalEverett featuring on the #bestseller lists. I was so disappointed in that book. *Loved* the opening chapters when it was shaping up to be a sharp, witty #policeprocedural with a cold eye on #Mississippi's and #USA's lynchings (wake-up line: "I see all #policeshootings as lynchings") but then it went all artsy and #magicalrealism and #losttheplot. Still, a #writertowatch @bookstodon

@meshell @bookstodon I read it a few weeks ago - definitely recommended yes 👍 I would also really recommend #TheTrees but #PercivalEverett which I enjoyed even more 😊
Those observant amongst you will recognise a link between #TheTrees album #TheGardenOfJaneDelawney and the last band I played #AllAboutEve #December #Winter

Just finished reading #TheTrees by #PercivalEverett.
Really outstanding book – both hilarious and terrifying.
But how haven’t I heard of him before?
Was this a(nother) case of #BlackAuthors being neglected ? 🧐
