The Label:
British Label famous for reprinting and releasing unknown archive recordings of very rare, very interesting and very British Progressive, Folk, Psychedelic, Underground, Esoteric and Jazz-Rock from 1965 to 1978. Active search for more recordings to release. He owns the permanent rights to many LP’s, so the repertoire will remain in print indefinitely at lower price bands.
Seelie Court label features some of the rarest, most sought-after and expensive UK private prints and progressive rock and folk rock acetates from 1965 to 1978.
The releases are all 12 inch vinyl LP with rough and mostly openable covers. The first 4 versions were printed in Deepgrooves, but production was transferred to the legendary UK EMI pressing plant for all later versions after Deepgrooves proved inefficient and delivered only 300 copies of a 500 Ordered for an LP, and it took 3 months to print.
Most of the publications come from a private collection of super rare and often completely unknown British acetate and private print LP dating back to 1965-1978, the most precious LPs in existence. LP like Anaconda (post Arcadium) and Barney James (technically a third Warhorse LP) are undocumented and have been kept in a black box for decades. The label will release progressive rock and folk rock 1965-1978 and post punk / new wave 1976-1982 on a sub-label.

Label policy when burning from vinyl is that a superficial noise residue is preferable to excessive compression of music Many old reprints have destroyed high frequencies in search of ′′ silent operation ′′ using Cedar declicking programs etc. Seelie Court is aiming to maintain the power of original recordings. Some original materials are unique and severely damaged, these recordings are saved during the recovery process.
