UK two CD set. In 1969 a classic folk-rock album escaped on Deram, Scenery by Paper Bubble, produced by Dave Cousins and Tony Hooper for their then production company Strawberry Music. Recorded in the same year of release the producers engaged Rick Wakeman, and Richard Hudson, John Ford, Paul Brett recently of Velvet Opera, to back the Paper Bubble duo Brian Crane and Terry Brake, at Regent Sound engineered by Tom Allom. The same team re-gathered again in 1970, this time at Olympic studios to lay down the songs for a follow-up called Prisoners Victims Strangers Friends. By now the backing band had gelled as a unit, along with Cousins and Hooper, as The Strawbs and sailed off into the sunset. Same time the initial return on Scenery had failed to inspire the suits and consequently PVSF was left on the shelf. Happily, a sound desk recording was preserved by Brian. Thus RPM is proud to present both Paper Bubble LPs as backed by The Strawbs, plus the duo's late '70s single, and to round off Disc Two, following PVSF, their final work together the 1981 album I'm Coming Home. As a bonus on Disc One, we have been able to include freshly mixed versions of five songs from Scenery and one from PVSF, taken from the only surviving 48 year old multi-track masters. For the first time, we have the Paper Bubble story direct from Brian and Terry in the booklet, plus photos from Brian's own archive.
