King Strut and Other Stories by Peter Blegvad - Classic Short Story Collection - Perfect for Book Clubs, Literature Lovers & Gift Giving

For years this 1990 gem was only available in the US as an import and then it wasn't available at all. This is one of Peter Blegvad's finest records. Backed by a rotating cast of players including his brother Kristoffer, Chris Stamey and Peter Holsapple of the (GREAT) dBs, Andy Partridge of XTC (who co-authored a couple here), legendary bassist Danny Thompson of Pentangle, pedal steel wizard B.J. Cole, and more, all at the service of a set of brilliant songs by this singular genius.Songs like: "Swim", "Gold", "On Obsession", "Meantime", "Northern Lights", "Stranger to Myself", and "Not Weak Enough" are among Peter's best compostions. Framed by the elaborate fable of "King Strut", this excellent set of story songs is essential listening.
