Product note

Personnel: Roy Harper, Ian Anderson, Rick Sanders, Steve Bernard, Noel Barrett, John Fitzgerald, Felix Howard, Misumi Kosaka, Colm O'Sullivan, Bonnie Shaljean, Jeff Ward.
The limited edition first pressing includes a bonus interview CD and a 52 page booklet.
Thirty years and probably about as many albums since Roy Harper's debut, 1997's THE DREAM SOCIETY is a thoughtful, irreverent blast of folk-rock from one of the most idiosyncratic artists of his generation. Wisely avoiding any attempt to update the basic aspects of Harper's sound--12-string acoustic guitar, raspy voice, folk-rock arrangements with hints of jazz and blues--THE DREAM SOCIETY has all of the power and directness of '70s classics like STORMCOCK and HQ.
Sarcastic lyrics like "Drugs for Everybody" and "Come the Revolution" show that age has not mellowed Harper, but the tender "I Want to Be in Love" and "These Fifty Years" view life from a decidedly more mature and reflective standpoint. Fine, substantial stuff.
