Still known for his 1968 masterpiece "Ask the Unicorn" (remastered / reissued by Tin Angel in 2015), Askew has been crafting a sort of art crooner pop for decades -- vivid imagistic lyrics supported by wild melodies and his increasingly warm voice. Askew's two most recent studio albums are also on Tin Angel and feature Sharon van Etten, Marc Ribot and Mary Lattimore."The songs are intensely personal... but also somehow universal in their humble portrayal of the human condition." - Ben Graham, The QuietusThe tour was with Neilson own psych folk darlings, Trembling Bells. The groups soon began to mingle. By the end, everybody sang back up on the Sikh dharma quoted in Heron's 'A Very Cellular Song.' And early on Ed Askew's set included Neilson on drums and Mike Hasting of the Bells on guitar in addition Askew's keyboardist Jay Pluck.Prior to what would be an iconic show at Cafe Oto in London, this group went to Flesh and Bone Studio in Hackney to record a session live to track with Owen Pratt. They were joined by friend and collaborator, violinist Jordan Hunt (The Irrespressibles, Theo Adams Company).This EP is that live to track afternoon session. The songs, all of them from the tour set list, cover the range of Askew's career.The title track from his 1968 masterpiece is there; and also 'Little Eyes' which is a title track as well from the "sister album" to Ask the Unicorn which was recorded the same year but remained unreleased until 2007 (DeStijl).'Coast to Coast' and 'Little Clouds' are brand new songs -- "All the times I've tried / to love some guy / to love some guy."
