HATFIELD AND THE NORTH
RICHARD SINCLAIR, PHIL MILLER, PIP PYLE, DAVE STEWART
plus THE NORTHETTES, GEOFF LEIGH, JEREMY BAINES, ROBERT WYATT
Emerging from the Canterbury, England musical community that also launched Gong and
Kevin Ayers' the Whole World, the whimsical progressive rock unit Hatfield and the North formed in 1972.
Named in honor of a motorway sign outside of London, the group's founding membership brought
together a who's who of the Canterbury art rock scene -- vocalist/bassist Richard Sinclair was a former
member of Caravan, guitarist Phil Miller had tenured with Robert Wyatt in Matching Mole,
and drummer Pip Pyle had served with both Gong and Delivery. After a series of lineup shuffles,
keyboardist Dave Stewart (an alumnus of Egg) was brought in to complete the roster,
and in tandem with the Northettes -- a trio of backing vocalists consisting of
Barbara Gaskin, Amanda Parsons, and Ann Rosenthal -- the group began gigging regularly

On their eponymous debut, Hatfield stunningly succeeded in translating both their sense of fun
and their musical brilliance onto disc. After a bit of light humor, the band slide into
"Going Up to People and Tinkling," which glides gloriously across the keys and rhythm shifts.
Both "Calyx" and "Aigrette" experiment with vocals as an instrument, while the exuberant
"Rifferama" is a master class on the use of riffs. However, it's the expansive
"Son of 'There's No Place like Homerton'" that forms the album's centerpiece, a propulsive,
keyboard driven piece that still awaits a modern dance troop's attention....(AllMusic)
