{"product_id":"across-the-water","title":"Across the Water { vinyl }","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn unknown and precious album recorded in 1975 by two friends who recorded one side each, they made just two acetates and then handmade beautiful covers from two enlargements of a photograph of the Isles of St Kilda. Side one is a neo-classical prog rock epic in the style of Renaissance and Continuum, inspired by the wild and pagan isles of St Kilda where, as a 16 yr old, the composer Peter MC Kerrow was taken by military launch to conduct a census on the rare Soay Sheep that live there. A storm blew away his tent on the first night. The other side is by his Canadian pal who attended the same Uni in England, deeply homesick for Canada and surviving a broken relationship these songs are melancholic and Cohen-esque. The original LP is astonishingly gorgeous and one of the most desirable looking artifacts of the prog era.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Across the Water","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53863175422289,"sku":"3267787699941.0","price":5.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/6721\/3905\/files\/3835150-2578182.jpg?v=1779780763","url":"https:\/\/vinylgroove.shop\/products\/across-the-water","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
