Seelie Court 

Seelie Court is an English label specializing in releasing Archival Recordings from 1965-1978 by British and Irish Artists. Their releases include genres such as Progressive Rock, Folk Rock, Psychedelia, Hard Rock, Experimental, and the wilfully eccentric. With a focus on preserving unique sources and previously unreleased material, Seelie Court brings a fresh perspective to the music scene.

Audio Restoration for their releases is carried out by several Specialist audio engineers, including work at Abbey Road. Previously, Reynolds Mastering was used until mid-2021. All pressings are made on the original E.M.I Presses in London where iconic Beatles LPs were once pressed. However, due to severe delays in pressings starting in 2022, alternative British presses have been utilized.

As a label that owns permanent rights to thousands of songs, Seelie Court steadily releases these treasures while also being home to the Copyrights in the Complete Works of Dark makers of the world's rarest rock LP. Specializing exclusively in vinyl records with CD versions available through their sub-label Seelie Court Digital; they maintain a commitment to environmental sustainability by avoiding shrinkwrap and unnecessary plastics as part of their standard policy. Mastering, Manufacturing, and Artwork are all proudly Made in Great Britain.

Seelie Court stress that this series includes some of the most damaged recordings you are likely to ever hear on vinyl on 2 lps of the 14 titles. Mastering and cutting was extremely dificult due to the amount of degradation of some master tapes, involving wrestling with complex frequencies making the cutting of lacquers a work of genius from DKS. Seelie Court considers Darks work to be of great archival importance and has been dedicated to releasing the band’s life works and documenting everything, no matter what the condition, while it is possible to be restored . This goal has finally reached fruition.


Each LP features a detailed printed inner sleeve with minute technical detail about each recording session - the dates, the locations, and every instrument model used on the tracks is named and categorised.
To achieve an authentic aesthetic, every LP cover uses a reproduction of the actual precious white gatefold sleeve of the original 1972 LP as the frame/background to photos relevant to the particular recording sessions and showing the members at the time of each recording.
