Daltrey, Peter -& The Know Escape-
Running Through Chelsea
Singer-songwriter Peter Daltrey returns with the album 'Running Through Chelsea' together with The Know Escape. As one
of Britain's finest songsmiths of the 1960s and 1970s, Peter's voice continues to convey magic and emotion with a lustre
of lysergic lyrical lacquer. His brilliant '60s group Kaleidoscope were one of the great psychedelic groups to emerge
from the U.K. during those heady days. With infectious pop tunes laced with folk-rock jingle-jangle goodness and
anapaestic lyrics that set them apart from many of their contemporaries, Kaleidoscope were vital as was too their more
progressive folk early '70s incarnation as Fairfield Parlour. The band has often been spoken about with the same
reverence reserved for Pink Floyd's Syd Barrett era, despite their lack of mainstream success. This is a 50-50
collaboration with Mark Mortimer, formerly of DC Fontana and The Sorrows, who has always been a fan of Peter's work.
'Chelsea' is more sonic expressionism from the two musicians; the songs are "psychedelic" in a sense without ever
falling into the trap of being shoddy xeroxes of past glories. This is modern, forward-looking music with a lot of
techniques and textures that Kaleidoscope fans will enjoy. The album is produced by longtime Julian Cope producer Donald
Ross Skinner in London and Rick Reil in New York.
