about

First released on CD in 2015 in a limited edition run of 500, 'Swoons And Levitations' sold out in just 11 days.

'Swoons and Levitations' is a vocal album with instrumental interludes. It is made up of tracks from the same sessions that produced the 'Shining Reflector' album and has a rock/pop feel.
The mood is generally light and sunny, casual and fun and will appeal to fans of Be Bop Deluxe as well as fans of my more quirky material.

The download comes with complete PDF artwork.

Bloody Noses EP
by Richard Thompson

supported by 9 fans who also own “Swoons And Levitations”

John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser. Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this. Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?). With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP. yellowcakeuf6
