In the years just before his untimely death in 1995, Vivian Stanshall intended to generate a new album based around the content of three of the final Rawlinson’s End episodes broadcast by John Peel on the BBC; Crackpot at the end of the Rainbow recorded in February 1988, The Eating at Rawlinson End, from August 1988 and The Thing at Rawlinson End, from April 1991.
For decades it has been rumoured that a new Sir Henry album would be released and now, in 2023, Madfish in collaboration with the Stanshall Family have made that rumour a reality.
Using all the remaining tapes from Vivian’s archive, Stanshall expert and performance artist Michael Livesley has managed to put together the intended release, a process that he has described as similar to, “Putting back together a smashed vase.” The results are a revelation with the final album containing some of Vivian’s finest work.
Fans of Sir Henry, Old Scrotum, Mrs E and the various bizarre and evocative characters that inhabit the musty Rawlinson’s End will be thrilled at the imagined adventures that await them.
