Pete Brown / Phil Ryan - Ardours of the Lost Rake / Coals to Jerusalem

Digitally remastered two CD set containing a pair of expanded collaborations between Pete Brown and Phil Ryan. Pete Brown is perhaps best known for being lyricist on the classic songs co-written with Jack Bruce for both Cream and Jack's solo albums. In addition Pete is a respected performer in his own right, having performed with the bands Battered Ornaments and Piblokto! In the '70s and fronting his own band, the Interocetors. Phil Ryan has had a respected career as keyboard player for legendary bands such as Eyes of Blue, Man and Neutrons along with a spell as keyboard player in Piblokto! With Pete Brown. Both albums in this set were originally released in 1991 and 1993 respectively and feature fine material. Unavailable for many years, this set has been newly remastered and features four previously unreleased bonus tracks.
