Peter Bellamy, Tell It Like It Was, LP UK Trailer 1975 - LER 2089

 

A collection of compositions, traditional and not, arranged by Peter in ten years of live concerts. The curious cover, designed by Bellamy himself, reproduces an image of the artist himself on the background of some fifteenth-century paintings by Piero da Bellini: the resemblance between the artist and the character portrayed in the painting is curious. The producer is Bill Leader.

Una collection di composizioni, tradizionali e non, arrangiate da Peter in dieci anni di concerti dal vivo. La curiosa copertina, disegnata dallo stesso Bellamy, riproduce un'immagine dello stesso artista sullo sfondo di alcune tele del quattrocento, opera di Piero da Bellini: curiosa è la somiglianza tra l'artista e il personaggio ritratto nel quadro. Il produttore è Bill Leader.
