A Declaration crdvd25 The first ever DVD to feature one of the most influential and enduringly popular alternative bands of all time, Felt. Felt were formed in 1980 by their enigmatic leader Lawrence, and went on to achieve huge critical acclaim and a hardcore following of devoted fans. They went on to record ten albums (one a year) through the 1980's.
The albums are being reissued in full by Cherry Red Records over the course of the next few months, so interest in the band will be very strong. "A Declaration" is therefore the perfect accompaniment to the album releases. It features a full length concert, filmed at ULU in 1987, with the band, and Lawrence's songwriting, at the peak of their powers. Amongst the tracks featured are the Indie Chart top twenty hit "Ballad Of The Band", and, possibly their most recognised track, the Indie Chart number one "Primitive Painters". The cover artwork was specially designed by Lawrence, and the DVD also features an extremely rare promotional video shot by Danny Weinstein, who also produced the ULU film.

Me And A Monkey On The Moon acmem24cd Having laid down a whole catalogue of classics during the eighties on Cherry Red and then Creation, Felt moved to Él to assume something of the label's style. A surprisingly enigmatic record known only to the band's hard-core following, but indeed essential to any with a weakness for the inventive guitar pop propagated by this group.
With this album Lawrence achieved his aim of releasing 10 albums in 10 years. This is the final part of the Felt re-issue campaign which has seen all ten of Felt's studio albums - including the Creation Records recordings, re-issued by Cherry Red.
