Album Review: Fuchsia II - From Psychadelica...To A Distant Place

Michael Smith

This time, going back has brought something beautiful to today.



This album could have come out at height of the British folk-rock movement of the late '60s, so redolent is it of a certain kind of nostalgic atmosphere and melodic and lyrical sensibility. In fact, according the backstory, it should have. The mind behind it is guitarist, singer and songwriter Tony Durant, who was in the original Fuchsia back in the UK in the '60s and whose recently rediscovered “lost album” rekindled a desire to revisit that 40-year-old musical place. This time, going back has brought something beautiful to today.
