Cherry Red

Cherry Red is a British label that was founded by Iain McNay in 1978. Also known as Cherry Red Records, this label has become associated with the company Music and Media Group. With the label code LC 6730, Cherry Red has made a name for itself in the music industry. It is important to note that this label should not be confused with the US label of the same name.

Mercury Rev is an alternative rock band from Buffalo, New York. Formed in 1989, they started out as a collective providing soundtracks for student films. The band gained recognition in the UK for their psychedelic and experimental indie rock sound, which later evolved into a more melodic and bittersweet style. After their second record, "Boces," frontman David Baker left the band to pursue his own project as Shady. In 1998, Mercury Rev achieved mainstream success with their album "Deserter's Songs," which was awarded "Best Album Of The Year" by NME.

The current members of Mercury Rev include Jonathan Donahue on vocals and guitar, and Grasshopper (Sean Mackowiak) on guitar and clarinet. Over the years, the band has had several former members who contributed to their unique sound through woodwinds, drums, bass, keyboards, and other instruments.

With their captivating music and distinctive style, Mercury Rev continues to captivate audiences worldwide with their enchanting melodies and thought-provoking lyrics.

Formed in Buffalo, New York, in 1989, Mercury Rev quickly grew to become leading figures in left field alternative rock. Earlier albums veered towards experimental, off-kilter psychedelia but by the end of the decade, the band had developed their own brand of serene, piano-based Americana with the acclaimed, best-selling LP Deserter’s Songs (1998).

All is Dream, the sequel to Deserter’s Songs, was originally released on V2 in 2001 in August (Europe) and September (North America) and boasted a more expansive, cinematic production than its predecessor (again courtesy of ex-member Dave Fridmann, by this time arguably the most in-demand producer in alternative US rock). The record was warmly received by critics and fans alike, enjoying higher chart positions than its predecessor (No. 11 UK, No. 17 US, Top 40 in Australia and in various European countries, etc.). Three singles were chosen from the album in the UK: Nite And Fog, the classic opening track The Dark Is Rising (No. 16 UK) and Little Rhymes. All Is Dream remains Mercury Rev’s highest charting album in the UK to date (and second highest in the US).

Cherry Red Records release a limited edition double coloured vinyl edition. With all previous vinyl editions of All is Dream now hard to find, this new version not only satiates demand for one of the band’s most important records but adds a bonus disc featuring various B-sides and out-takes which were unveiled on last year’s 4-CD book set.
