By way of apology to those who prefer compact discs, we have a few dozen of the CDR promotional edition available. While not quite up to Radio Khartoum's usual CD packaging standards (jewel case alert!), it does include an illustrated 16-page booklet with lyrics, song notes by Matt Jones and a sleeve note by Frank Discussions. In fact, it includes several illustrations that the vinyl doesn't, including that damned, obligatory cat and catalogue thing that has dogged our last four Bügelfrei-designed releases.

about

Early one evening I saw a fox loping along my street and past my front gate. The streetlight bled the bright colours of his coat to insipid greys and blues. The fox disappeared into the gloom but remained in my thoughts. I’d never seen one in my street before. I tried to imagine the places where it went at night and where it found refuge during the day, as well as wondering whether this meant I’d be seeing more foxes outside my house in future. I haven’t seen one since. There was a song in it, though—a Nick Drake-type of song about outcasts. There is often a song in it.

lyrics

I’ve seen you walking around
Upon the outskirts of this old town
Your spiky copper-coloured hair
That has seldom seen the sun
I often wonder what it’s like
To only ever see the world by moonlight
The yellows, oranges and reds
Replaced by silvers, blues and whites

All muffled and mute
The sounds and colours of the day
Here comes a solitary flute
As blazing trumpets fade away

I’ve seen you walking around
Upon the outskirts of this old town
Getting bolder by the day
But still you have to go to ground
Do you ever wonder what it’s like
To walk around these busy streets in daylight?
Peering from the undergrowth
Always ready to take flight

You’re leaving your scent
In midnight places where silently you went
Hey foxy where do you go when the sun rises?
I’d really like to know

What a joy to find this on bandcamp, having missed out on the vinyl rerelease. I'd only heard Strawberry Window prior to this, but I love that song and have done since first hosting it on Radio Scotland, back in the late 80s. This is exactly my kind of music, layered, anthemic guitars and great melodies. At times, it brings to mind another great lost band, The Train Set. Fabulous stuff. richardw27

The greatest to ever do it, do it again! Sometimes lush as a warm blanket, sometimes all the angles of a dance party, always suspended in and out of time _hopskipjump

Picture In Mind
by Rachel Love

supported by 13 fans who also own “Run Fox Run”

This is music that softly, gently, melodically improves the atmosphere. I first heard Rachel via The Dolly Mixture. That music helped me find beauty while living in a rough childhood home. I later ran away, taking my Dolly Mixture cassette with me. Many decades on, life's difficult, the world is troubled, but Rachel's music once again adds an element of beauty. Her music is something to cherish. Cheers, Rachel. Andy Waltzer

Just find it so uplifting and really soundtracks my place in life at the moment. Strength of the songs was only magnified seeing them played live at Shiiine On Weekender in 2021. niggle66
