Editorial Reviews

2009 digitally remastered and expanded reissue. Originally released in 1969, Son of Anastasia was the debut album by one of Liverpool's finest musicians, Jimmy Campbell. Previously a member of The Kirkby's and 23rd Turnoff, Campbell's solo career began with this album (produced by John Cameron who had earlier worked with Donovan) which featured material both of aching beauty and melancholia such as the excellent 'On a Monday' and his reworking of 'Michelangelo'. 17 tracks. Esoteric. 2009.

This review is from: Son of Anastasia (Audio CD)

This is a beautiful recording. Virtually every track is affecting. Well written and thoughtful lyrics complement the tender singing and lovely melodies. It doesn't tire after repeated listening.
An overlooked gem.
