about

On the 27th of February, 2021 Peter Hammill posted on Twitter: "By the day, by the hour, this country is becoming a darker and darker place."

At the very same moment I started test-playing yet another copy from the bunch of discs of "Sketches...". And the BANG! happened in my head.

Of course, it maybe only me and, naturally, it's up to you whether it has the same effect on you or not. But always remember: “Parfois la pire chose qui nous arrive, c’est en réalité pour notre bien”, an impromptu, a phrase that Noïem Thomas came up with after I asked her what she thought about the situation I brought her by telling the story behind the album and recording her vocal for yet another song on this album.
