Sunbeam Records present the first official reissue of Don Shinn's second and final album, Departures, originally released in 1969. Departureswas made in London's Lansdowne Studios only a few months after his classic debut. Featuring a more jazzy and experimental side to his remarkable organ playing (a clear influence on the young Keith Emerson) and a band including jazz legend Stan Tracey, it's presented here fifty years after its first release. Includes a 12-page booklet with detailed background notes and rare images. Includes three newly recorded bonus tracks that make it clear that the maestro has lost none of his touch.

"Don Shinn got a fantastic sound from the L-100... He and Jimi Hendrix were controlling influences over the way I developed..." --Keith Emerson
