"Bill Fay is one of English music's best kept secrets. At the dawn of the 1970s, he was a one-man song factory, with a piano that spilled liquid gold and a voice every bit the equal of Ray Davies, John Lennon, early Bowie, or Procol Harum's Gary Brooker. He made two solo albums but his contract wasn't renewed, which left his LPs and his reputation to become cult items. But he never stopped writing, the music kept on coming. Now, in his late sixties, he has produced Life Is People, a brand new studio album that shows his profoundly humanist vision is as strong as it ever was."

Subtitled: A Collection of Demos and Outtakes, 1966-70. "Described by Mojo magazine as 'Britain's pop Salinger,' the reclusive Bill Fay cut the classic 'Screams In The Ears'/'Some Good Advice' single in 1967 before making two dark singer-songwriter albums for Decca, at which point he opted for public silence. This CD features 25 stunning, previously-unreleased late '60s demos. Baroque '60s pop at its finest, this important release includes new quotes from Bill." 2004 release.
