This new archival Ed Askew release A Child in the Sun, which features never-before-seen vintage photos, is friggin ASTRAL FOLK GOLD, ie., historical sonic riches we could have never imagined existed. Ed unearthed four reels of radio sessions taped in 1969-70, performing songs from his first two albums (and the totally previously unreleased track, "Green Song")! The tapes were meticulously studied by Galactic Zoo Disk honcho Plastic Crimewave, and the best versions were extracted for this release - absolutely stunning renditions of Askew standards like "Fancy That", "Red Woman" and "Mr. Dream" - which are perhaps even more gooily gorgeous than the originals.
