Seelie Court - the world's premier label for rare and previously unreleased archive recordings of underground folk, rock, proto-metal, and psychedelic music presents Rainbird. This extremely rare Rainbird LP has only been heard by a few people, managing to escape internet uploads until 2022. Of the 200 privately issued, it's thought that most were destroyed in the early '70s. The wrong cover - a terrible concoction of the Printer's was used on the LP, but luckily a Poster was recently found with the gorgeously Psychedelic original LP design which is reinstated on this edition. Rainbird's music is a willfully indulgent and eccentric dreamlike Progressive Rock, swathed in hypnotic flute, sometimes reminiscent of the Moody Blues' more introspective moments. Many thanks to Pauline Alden, Sue Collins and Duncan Fox, without whom this album would not have happened. Thanks also to Colin Roberts, Tim Payne, Steve Degoutis, Charlotte Mackie, Jane Hoskins, Biffin, The Gillings, Jane MC Grath, Bophus, Elis Phekhenen, Jon Rutt, Dick and Chris Munn, Hedgehog, Drayton Steve Razz of the Worthy Farmers, Rick and Sue of the Swindon Wheelers, Dave of Treebeard, and to everyone who helps out by buying a copy. Apologies to Davin of The Third Path for lyrical changes in 'Stormdance' parts one and two.
