"I feel very proud of this album" said singer and composer Peter Daltrey. "And it's heart warming that people from around the world still love these songs." Peter talks about this unusual 'concept album' in an exclusive new interview with Repertoire's Chris Welch, featured in the liner notes to this important CD release.
The story of a young British band that went through many changes and endured lots of adventures typifies the mood of the late Sixties, when psychedelic rock gripped the world. Kaleidoscope had released singles and albums, but was then renamed Fairfield Parlour, to avoid confusion with an American Kaleidoscope. However, both UK bands featured Peter Daltrey (vocals, keyboards), Eddy Pumer (guitars), Steve Clark (bass, flute), and Dan Bridgman (drums).
As Fairfield Parlour, they released an album called 'From Home to Home' in 1970. This was followed by 'White Faced Lady', an ambitious rock opera recorded in 1970-71. It was shelved for many years, until restored under the Kaleidoscope banner and shed new light on the legendary 'long lost' album.
The music goes through many moods over 16 tracks, until reaching a rousing crescendo in pieces inspired by the tragic story of Marilyn Monroe. Now fully restored, this dynamic masterwork recalls a truly creative era in rock history
