"The so called "Liverpool Album" was specially pressed (800 pieces) and given away to members of the audience who attended a famous Enid concert in Liverpool in the 1980's.

Contrary to a common myth, this is not a live album of that concert. It is a compilation album of studio tracks taken from Something Wicked this Way Comes, The Spell and Salome. The Liverpool Album also has a recording of Nimrod especially made for inclusion on this anthology.

This version was played and recorded in front of a small audience of friends and fans shortly before the show in Liverpool took place. The aplause, which was removed from the orginal vinyl production, has been left on."

Well, my review. It's an excellently produced CD, with an interpretative delicacy and excellent composition. A CD of warm and quiet song (very quiet, perhaps too much).

This CD is away from the classic concept of Enid. That is, if we expect to find a mix of Jean Sibelius and "Barclay James Harvest" will not meet expectations. Rather reminds the works of Alan Parsons (the betters).

In short: Quiet music for troubled times.

Important: Can be downloaded for FREE from the website of The Enid
