Vinyl LP pressing. 2012 debut solo album from Bill Ryder-Jones, founding member and lead guitarist from the Coral. The album was recorded to soundtrack Italo Calvino's meditation on writing in the post modernist novel If on a Winters Night a Traveler and lays out grand orchestral movements side by side with stark, nakedly emotional vocal led pieces that weave a bleak but beautifully visceral accompanying narrative.. If has provided the framework necessary for Ryder-Jones to explore his musical potency in full detail.
