I love a lavish curio
and this is one such item. It’s a 3-CD set based on the notorious 18th
century Martin brothers: John Martin (you may have seen his epic romantic
paintings of Biblical scenes in the Laing), William Martin (the self-styled
“Philosophical Conqueror of all Nations”) and Jonathan Martin (who famously set
fire to York Minster). This 50-tracker includes music and words from Gary
Miller along with Keith Armstrong, Iain Petrie and Friends, as well as a deluxe
book containing lyrics to all songs, poems and spoken word pieces with extra
text and related imagery. A beautifully realised package.
