Description
Kevin Ayers and The Whole World - Singing A Song In The Morning c/w Eleanor's Cake Which Ate Her.
Very rare single by Kevin Ayers that features Syd Barrett from Pink Floyd and Richard and David Sinclair from Caravan. Original German pressing issued in 1970 by Harvest Records.
Company Sleeve: EX
Record: NM
"Singing a Song in the Morning" (originally titled "Religious Experience") was the first Kevin Ayers single, released three months after his debut solo LP Joy of a Toy. It did not feature on the album, however, the b-side, "Eleanor's Cake (Which Ate Her)", was taken from the album and is considered a classic Ayers recording.
For the recording of Syd Barrett's first solo album—The Madcap Laughs—Soft Machine was brought in to do overdubs for a few of Barrett's tracks.[1] It was during this time, Barrett did guitar for Ayers on his track "Religious Experience",[2][3] this version was not released until the 2003 reissue of Joy.[1]
Part of the lyrics of "Singing a Song in the Morning" have been used in "Moon in June", the suite by Robert Wyatt included in Third, the Soft Machine album released in June 1970.[4]
