The Beautiful Changes — New CD Reissue

Julie Covington's first (1971) album has now been reissued by Cherry Red Records on their Cherry Tree label, six years after we sold the final copies of the 1999 See For Miles version. This time the booklet includes complete lyrics to all of the songs, plus newly written notes from Pete Atkin, producer Don Paul, arranger Don Fraser and from Julie herself, along with track by track comments.

The new CD is true to the original LP concept, without the bonus tracks of SFM 's ...Plus version. The rear tray insert with track listing is in fact a facsimile of the original Columbia Records LP sleeve. This release is not stocked by Hillside Music, but may be ordered on line from Amazon or other retail outlets, or indeed direct from Cherry Red Records.
