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'. Charisma. 2005.
