Mirkwood’s lone self-titled album. Originally issued in 1973, in an edition of just 99 copies, available again through the Machu Piscchu label. Killer harmonies and lots of twin-guitar lead action, tough and tender, this record is pure autumnal magic !

Coming out of the port town of Dover, with each of the group members having honed their moves in various outfits for years (including the original Rolling Stones from 1957 - no relation to the Glimmer Twins). This album’s fantastic mix of precise hard rock and mysterious ballads has had many a private press enthusiast by the hair over the years. Crashing out of the gates with the one-two knockout combination of the fuzz shuffle of “Take My Love” and the epic 11-minute centerpiece of “Love’s Glass Of Sunshine”, this record is a classic deep listen, revealing great moments with each new spin.
