This is also solo effort from member of Honeybus. When 'March Hare' appeared (and disappeared) in 1971, nobody would have expected the Honeybus guitarist/singer to come up with such a well-crated collection of original material, his previous attempts being limited to one Honeybus b-side and a couple of songs on their classic 'Story' album. Recorded in the same flurry of sessions that spawned Pete Dello's 'Into Your Ears' and Honeybus' ill-fated reunion album 'Recital', 'March Hare' is a UK troubadour classic which still sounds fresh and innovative today. With help from Honeybus drummer Pete Kircher and Rockpile guitar whizz Billy Bremner, Colin laid down a dozen tracks which run the whole gamut of early 70's pop, rock, folk and country influences. Highlights are too numerous to mention but the beatific waltz of 'Bloodshot Eyes', the effortlessly commercial pop of 'Alice' and the haunting folk ballad 'Find Me' still send shivers down the spine.
