Lal Waterson & Oliver Knight, Once in a Blue Moon

CD Topic Rec.  1996 (TSCD 478)

Album superbo, formidabile, difficile trovare aggettivi adeguati. La registrazione è avvenuta ai Panda Sound per merito dello stesso Oliver Knight e di Ray Williams. L'artwork di copertina è opera di Maria Gilhooley e Bryan Ledgard. Le fotografie sono di Miles Evans. Un CD assolutamente da possedere.
