"Mastered & cut at Abbey Road studios. Fully restored artwork and liner notes withexclusive interview. Esoteric Recordings are pleased to announce the release of a newly re-mastered 180 gram vinyl lp edition of the classic 1978 ambient masterpiece
Blake's New Jerusalem
by Tim Blake. Tim first came to prominence as a member of Gong, where his synthesiser experimentation and mastery was demonstrated on albums such as
Flying Teapot
,
Angel's Egg
and
You
. He would also join Hawkwind from 1979 - 1980 and from November 2007. After departing Gong in 1975 he teamed up with French lighting designer Patrice Warrener to form Crystal Machine, pioneering the use of lasers and synthesisers in a live setting. Blake's debut solo album, Crystal Machine, was originally released in 1977 on the French experimental label Egg. Tim followed this with arguably his finest work,
Blake's New Jerusalem
in 1978. Unlike his previous work, the album featured songs and the lengthy title-track would dominate the album's second side. New Jerusalem also featured the guest appearance of Jean-Philippe Rykiel on mini-moog. Tim Blake would later perform both 'Lighthouse' and 'New Jerusalem' as a member of Hawkwind when he joined the band the following year. Now regarded as a truly pioneering work,
Blake's New Jerusalem
has been newly re-mastered and cut at Abbey Road studios for this first ever 180 gram vinyl LP reissue, which is a facsimile of the original 1978 Egg LP release."
