As demonstrated with ‘Elephantasia’, Dave Evans made the most amazing music imaginable but did so on his own terms…a timeless record that needs to be heard. Of course, it never demands it because that was never his way.
For the first time in over fifty years, Dave Evans’ 1972 folk opus Elephantasia is to be reissued on Earth Recordings in collaboration with his estate and original Village Thing producer Ian A. Anderson. Listen to Beauty Queen and Only Blue.
An excellent 6-track taster EP that celebrates the 50th anniversary of British folk and blues label Village Thing Records featuring Wizz Jones, Ian A Anderson, Steve Tilston & more.
The Words in Between was Evan’s first album, released on Ian A Anderson’s Village Thing label, an album that is as good today as it was over forty years ago – still exquisite and unique, so make a space on the shelf alongside Jansch, Renbourn and Graham for Evans.
