 | | Description: | Van der Graaf Generators Leadsänger, Keyboarder und Songschreiber Peter Hammill und sein erstes Soloalbum - benannt nach einer Kombination aus Schach und Tarotkarten - "Fool's Mate". Viele fragten sich, warum Hammill ein Soloalbum genau zu dem Zeitpunkt veröffentlichte, als die VDGG in Progressive-Rock-Kreisen gerade anfing, durchzustarten. Er erklärte, dass er das Bedürfnis hatte, sie aufzunehmen, bevor sie in seinem Leben an Bedeutung verloren. Fool's Mate" unterscheidet sich von VDGGs Material dadurch, dass es mehr Mainstream ist und grö�tenteils auf Klavier und akustischer Gitarre basiert. Aber Hammill ist immer noch in der Lage, die Gro�artigkeit ihres Stils zu vermitteln, wie man an den mitrei�enden Klängen von "Re-Awakening" hören kann. Und der Schlusstrack des Albums, "I Once Wrote Some Poems", deutet den Stil an, den Hammill in zukünftigen Veröffentlichungen noch stärker aufgreifen wird - Peter Hammill is one of the most unique and influential voices in prog. He was the pivotal figure in VDGG, who formed in 1967 at Manchester University. His obsession with lost love, lost faith, time, space and existence itself are the cornerstones of both his work with the band and his solo albums. This Reissue of the original 1970 release of 'Fool's Mate' features the 12 original tracks and 5 bonus tracks of the 'Early Demo Versions' for 'Re-Awakening', 'Summer Song in the Autumn', 'The Birds', 'Sunshine' & 'Happy'.
