hamdam Transparent, amazing music! And the lyrics are some of the deepest and at the same time beautiful in contemporary music. They are especially close to me as a poet and poetry lover.

Khrys Celebrationssen Always loved Piano Magic's distinctive style & creativity. I especially love the track featuring John Grant's vocals. The re-designed artwork looks fantastic too, in keeping with the feeling of the original.

    In order to offset this VAT cost, we have reduced all retail prices accordingly so that the cost to you should be roughly the same as it always was.

    Your mailing label contains an ‘IOSS’ icon, showing that all VAT has been paid and thus, you should not be charged again when your parcel is delivered. This should allow smooth and easy delivery of your records through customs, without any surprise import and admin fees.

    Also : fuck Brexit.

about

Originally released on CD only by 4AD Records in 2002, Second Language Music present this first vinyl issue of 'Writers Without Homes.' The 6th album by the Anglo-French band, Piano Magic, is notable not only for featuring the first recording in 30 years by long-lost "freak folk" doyenne, Vashti Bunyan but also an early appearance by John Grant who, of course, went on to much bigger things. There are further guest appearances by the German electronic duo, Tarwater, Robert Johnston from arch-rock band, Life Without Buildings, Charlotte Marionneau of Le Volume Courbe, Paul Anderson of Tram and Suzy Mangion. The late Spanish film director, Bigas Luna (for whom the band provided the soundtrack to his 'Son De Mar' movie) introduces the track, 'Already Ghosts.'

The album artwork has been completely redesigned for this release by Martin Andersen/Andersen M Studio. 500 copies only. 180gm, black vinyl with full colour printed inner sleeve. Mailed first class/tracked via Royal Mail from the UK.

Included with this release, a previously unreleased track from the 'Writers Without Homes' recording sessions, 'Blood & Snow,' featuring Suzy Mangion. Note : The track comes with the digital version of the album (but is not on the vinyl).
