At last a good start to the week, through the post this morning arrived "Shapes and Sounds Volume Two - Shades of Deeplest Purple from the BBC Archives 1967 - 1971" which includes 3 Bystanders tracks from 1967/68 . Tracks are Royal Blue Summer Sunshine Day, I Am The Walrus and Renaissance Fair plus 2 mini interviews with Clive John & Ray Williams. In addition there are fairly extensive liner notes by Nigel Lees and details of BBC sessions from July 1966 - Jan 1969.
Heartily recommended, my copy came from Amazon (Top Sounds Records TSSCD03) so with the news that there's already a new Man album on the way, things are on the up....
