The Honey Pot
Ascending Scales 3CD SET
winkle 25 special edition

sold out

Icarus Peel, Crystal Jacqueline and The Honey Pot created a double album of new songs along with classic and obscure songs from the 60s/early 70s to celebrate FdM's 100th vinyl release

They would have done a superb job of it on their own - but they roped an astonishing cast of Fruits de Mer and Honey Pot friends and family to contribute to create something pretty remarkable

The album sold out incredibly quickly and picked up some great feedback - so Icarus suggested we invite a few more friends along to join in the fun and the double LP has turned into a 3CD set, with almost an hour of extra music.

Who are the late arrivers?
How about Beau, who recreates his classic 'Silence Returns' with the help of the provider of the track's original corrosive electric guitar, Tractor's Jim Milne!
or Tir na nOg, who come up a wholly unexpected re-work of one of my favourite Moody Blues songs
...The Pretty Things' Dick Taylor returns to add some tasteful guitar to his own 'Sitting All Alone' (a remix of the track from the vinyl release)
Marc Swordfish from Astralasia and Glenda Pescado from Sendelica join the party...
...along with FdM regulars Ted Selke and Jay Tausig.
Once again, it's all pulled together by the indomitable Icarus Peel.

here's the full list of artists involved:

Crystal Jacqueline
Icarus Peel
Wayne Fraquet
