I learned about
this guy, just recently (2010) with his super-cool-psychedelic-pop creation
“Psychedelic Mynde of Moses”. It is obvious that this one caught the eyes (and
ears of course) of Keith’s FdM label. So, what we have here is a delicious
vinyl single, with 2 cover versions and a re-arranged version of “Psychedelic
Mynde of Moses”. This version pretty close to the original features Nick
Saloman of The Bevis Frond on guitar, so more talking (writing) would be
needless. “Sometimes I Wish I Was A Pretty Girl” was originally released on
1984 Robyn Hitchcock’s album “I Often Dream Of Trains”, Ant took this song,
relented and sweetened it a bit and presents it under a marvellous psychedelic
80s way. Ant, except Robyn, pays his dues to another cult-80s-resuscitator of
the 60s- figure, the mighty Julian Cope. “Out Of My Mind On Dope And Speed” was originally
included on Cope’s 5th solo album “Skellington” in 1989 and
Julian would be really proud of Anton’s remake of the song. Period… I just only
wish to add a subtitle on this FdM’s release; “The Art of Making 3-minute
Psych-Pop Priceless Rubies”. TimeLord Michalis
