/ by  / in , , /

An obscure and rare record from this folk act led by James Harpham, who plays the recorder, an ancient flute-like instrument. A Handful Of Pleasant Delites was originally released by Middle Earth in 1969 - the same label as Arcanum and Writing On The Wall - and featured an interesting blend of acoustic folk, baroque medleys, jazz improvisations and experimental music constantly shifting from pastoral atmospheres to urban neurosis.
