Notes
'Catherine of Aragon' was engineered and mixed at Trident Studios, London. 'Anne Boleyn' was engineered at Morgan Studios, London, and mixed at Trident Studios. All the remaining tracks were engineered and mixed at Morgan Studios. Recorded between February and October, 1972.
This album is based around my interpretations of the musical characteristics of the wives of Henry VIII. Although the style may not always be in keeping with their individual history, it is my personal conception of their characters in relation to keyboard instruments. - Rick
