Following a CD-R, an expanded tape reissue of the same, and a second tape, \u003ci\u003eFor Red Riverbank\u003c\/i\u003e is his first proper LP. What may have seemed like quirks on the first release—the \u003cem\u003eWind and the Willows\u003c\/em\u003e references, the old TV clips of British labour politics—turn out to be the project’s core. With amazing cover art suggesting classic ’70s British folk LPs, \u003ci\u003eFor Red Riverbank\u003c\/i\u003e seems to be a celebration of the recent past, caked though it may be in loam.
