The first and only solo outing from Honeybus founder member Pete Dello is a highly regarded album by not only Honeybus fans and '60's-'70's collectors, but by anyone who has been lucky enough to fall into its magic spell. Though reissued several times (by this very same label back in 2005 as extended double Lp/cd), this is the first ever reissue to feature the original album’s mix, and as Thomas Walsh states in the liner notes, "it’s a different musical animal altogether. Some of the songs feature alternate vocals, different instrumentation, different lead and harmony vocal melody lines, extra brass, no brass...all in all a revelation." This edition features a faithful reproduction of the original album's artwork, and includes an insert with liner notes based on a new interview with Pete Dello by Ivor Novello nominated songwriter Thomas Walsh (Pugwash) and a poster of the fabled Roger Dean cover art. Limited to 500 copies.

“A beautifully refreshing little album, if you like soft songs composed with a sense of humour, feeling for romance and old-fashioned charm… The tunes are almost all painfully simple; that’s their beauty. An outstanding album that’s been too long in coming” – Ray Coleman - Melody Maker, 1971

“It’s a well-produced, arranged and thought-out album, and just about the direction everyone imagined McCartney would have gone as a solo artist” - Disc & Music Echo, 1971
