(Fruits de Mer) I am
not too familiar with Fuchsia, but I am familiar with the exhilirating, surreal
thrill of getting to work with your heroes, so I can truly appreciate the
magical energy of this record. Contemporary band Me and My Kites was inspired
by British prog/proto phreak pholks Fuchsia, and their sole 1970 album. Upon
learning that lead Fuchsster Durant was working on Fuchsia II last year they
reached out, and the result is a collaboration, a reimagining of a F-tune with
Tony singing over the Kite krew. It’s a lively, lush sincere piece of pop, with
tremendous harmonies, joyful bounce, and a youthful voice that couldn’t have
been recording over 40 years ago! This is special.
