Very cool....he was covered by some other artists as well, The Bevis Frond, Damon & Naomi, Ghost....I have a CD of songs by some of these and others that are all Tom Rapp songs, "For The Dead In Space,"  released in 1997.
I remember the original, by Rapp with Pearls Before Swine.  He wrote some incredibly great songs...not every one was, but quite a few.  He famously wrote a song called "(Oh Dear) Miss Morse," n One Nation Underground that spelled out an expletive in Morse code that was banned from the radio for a time.  But most of his songs were hauntingly beautiful and very psychedelic.  

Interesting that This Mortal Coil's title is "Filigree and Shadow," although it doesn't seem to be related, the band Fever Tree had a song of the same name.  And, I just found out, also released a compilation of the same name in 2002, although the original was on their eponymous LP, released in 1968.
