Tiger Moth Tales – A Song of Spring (Spring Green Vinyl)
This is a Plane Groovy Release.
This release is strictly limited to 300 copies pressed on 180g spring green vinyl. A Song Of Spring is the 7th studio album from Tiger Moth Tales.
Following on from 2017's The Depths Of Winter, this 2022 offering from Peter Jones celebrates the spirit of rebirth and renewal.
A return to 'big prog moments, soundscapes and themes’, Camel bandmate Andy Latimer guests on the 8+ minute Light.
"It was fantastic to get Andy playing on the album, something we've talked about doing before, but the time felt right for this album and Andy did an amazing job as always. I also had help in the lyrics department from my good friends John and Libby Holden. I had completed most of the music, but lyrically I was behind schedule. I asked John and Libby if they would like to contribute, which felt right as I had worked with another lyricist on Depths Of Winter also." ~ Peter Jones
As with the first seasonal album, A Song Of Spring features stories and legends from around the world. From the Rapa Nui on Easter Island and the ancient Indian festival of Holi, to the Russian Pagan Rite Of Spring and references to Roman and Greek deities.
"There were so many good stories to choose from, with great suggestions from my wife and also John and Libby. As with all the albums, I like to have a variety of feelings and styles going on, both in the music and lyrics. I feel this album captures the joys of Springtime and the hopeful elements, but with those darker and sadder aspects lurking in the background to take you by surprise. That's how life tends to go after all." ~ Peter Jones
