This collection was originally released in 1987 as a vinyl only edition of 500.
Although the Bevis Frond only appeared on disc with 1987's Miasma, Nick Saloman had in fact been a struggling musician for a good two decades before that breakthrough. (Indeed, the final track here, the paisley pop "Alistair Jones," was recorded in 1967, when Saloman was all of 14 years old.) Originally released in a signed limited-edition record of 500 copies, then reissued as a double-LP set on Reckless (with all of the tracks eventually showing up as filler on Reckless' CD releases of the Bevis Frond's first several albums), Bevis Through the Looking Glass is a strictly historical collection of tracks that are primarily for the complete Bevis Frond devotee. Surely the average listener will find the 14-minute noodlefest "1970 Home Improvements" a tiresome slog, much less the side-long murk of "The Shrine." The more concise tracks on disc two are much better, with "Rat in a Waistcoat" being among Saloman's most biting early pop songs. Still, even this material is distinctly second class; Bevis Through the Looking Glass is completely unessential for all but the most die-hard Bevis Frond fans, but those diehards will find much to like, if not love. ~ Stewart Mason

This CD is a concept CD like all my CD's. This CD is about life & being on the road playing music for 15 years. .Like all my music/Lyrics I sing & say things that most of us feel but do not talk about. This music will move you no matter what your preference is in any type of music.Starting off 2008 I have put 19 CD's together that are basically my life's story & experiences in the music business, life, love, spirituality, political, quantum physic's. Although this is about my life everyone will connect most of these songs with their own life experiences at some level. My lyrics say all those things we think & feel but never talk about. The music is a combination of Rock-Alt Indie-Emo-Classic Rock-Alt Americana-Alt Folk-Alt Punk-Love songs-Alt country-Alt Urban, Raw, Edgy & Melting with a Straight forward attitude telling it like it is. All 19 CD's have a theme & in the lyrics & some of the CD titles are riddles to figure out. The plain facts were that my Grandfather was a musician & an alcoholic which affected my Father immensely. So He thought alcohol was the problem so he didn't drink but he acted just like one.That affected me so much that I escaped into music as i felt so insecure to the point that I felt I was unwanted as a son/child/person. My Mother was & still is the most loving person in the whole world but that still did not fill my empty hole which music did. I was made for music & the situation that was created was a match made in Heaven. I would play & write music for hours that turned into days on end thinking that was a normal way of being, which to me it was..... at 9 years old. At 6 My Father had me play a Chet Atkins song for a friend of his since I could play so well at that age. I played accordion for 3 years from 8 to 11 & performed at church almost every week. I played Oboe at those same ages doing school concerts all the while still playing & writing on guitar. I was always very nervous playing in front of an audience. I played in my first band at 13, a battle of the bands deal-We Won, although I'm sure we sounded like shit & from then on I jammed with records, anyone, anywhere I could & was always in at least 2 or more bands at one time & started play money gigs at 14. All this was happening thinking everything was normal but what was really happening is I was taking every emotion, feeling, life experiences in general & relating it to playing music and having it come out through playing music. Playing in bars at 13 with 35 year old players & telling them what the right chords were seemed normal to me as I understood music theory, & everything appeared normal. I did however make a lot of funny faces, as I was playing directly from my soul even at a young age knowing how each note would produce a feeling/emotion before I hit it, while I was playing, as I know now, music was how I communicated everything to the world.I could honestly say that 99.9% of women who have seen me play live say that it looks like I am making love to my guitar, which I do, as that is the only way I know how to connect to the world and everything about, in & around it.I have felt suicidal all my life ...
