Description
Double vinyl LP pressing. Originally released in August 1990, this is the first ever expanded re-issue of Marc Almond's opulent sixth studio album. Enchanted is saturated in Marc's signature poetic romanticism and contains some of his finest lyric writing in songs as various as the epic 'Madame de la Luna', 'Death's Diary' and 'Orpheus In Red Velvet'. Originally released in August 1990, Marc Almond's opulent sixth studio album, "Enchanted", is saturated in his signature poetic romanticism and contains some of his finest lyric writing in songs as various as the epic 'Madame de la Luna', 'Death's Diary' and 'Orpheus In Red Velvet. ' The album's lush lead single, 'A Lover Spurned', is a classic Almond power ballad of unrequited love with an equally thrilling production by Stephen Hague, employing a melodramatically thunderous 48-piece orchestra. The original album is replicated on the first record of this deluxe 2xLP set and the second record evidences, in both the B-Sides and the selection of original album demos that it contains, a more acoustic intimacy that frames Almond's superior song-writing craft in a counterpoint tradition of the deft and immediate story-telling thrust of the very best of European chanson.
