Garrie, Nick

The Nightmare Of J.b. Stanislas

Occasionally, a work of art falls into your hands with such a bizarre backstory, you just have to run with it. The implausible origins of Nick Garries folk-pop album "The Nightmare of J.B. Stanislas" require just such a leap of faith. The Englishman recorded his masterpiece in France at the tender age of nineteen. The year was 1968 and Garrie felt ill at ease with the lavish arrangements accompanying his songs (beautiful as they may sound to our ears today). Worse still, the label owner committed suicide and the record virtually disappeared without trace - until it resurfaced in 2005. This release now includes numerous bonus tracks, rare photograph and extensive liner notes.
