2018 repress. Stunning debut album from 1976 by legendary/cult UK folk musician Nigel Mazlyn Jones. Originally issued as a private pressing, Ship to Shore combines 6 and 12-string acoustic guitars with electric textures, effects and unusual soundscapes, culminating in the haunting progressive-folk 11-minute title-track. A folk-rock/acid-folk masterpiece highly recommended to anyone into John Martyn, Nick Drake, Michael Chapman, Bob Theil, or Pink Floyd. Mastertape sound, including an insert with photos and extensive liner-notes by Richard Allen. "... A pure, simple, thought-provoking, frightening and uplifting collection, it evoked timeless themes of environmental concern, spiritual surrender, natural wonderment, doubt and love all woven into a sparse yet entirely original acoustic folk sound." --Richard Allen (Freak Emporium)
