From punk legend and co-founding member of the Damned, presenting the vinyl premiere of Captain Sensible's The Universe of Geoffrey Brown . Originally released in 1993 and long out of print, this cult favourite finds the good Captain at his most ambitious--crafting a full-blown concept album about an ordinary man thrust into extraordinary circumstances: sorting a vital romance alongside receipt of an alien warning of earth's likely doom.
Co-shaped by Martin Newell (Cleaners from Venus), Geoffrey Brown plays like a sci-fi rock opera, packed with lush orchestration, playful synth work, and the Captain's signature wit. It's a deeply charming and strangely affecting journey. Perhaps the most precious chunk of Captain Sensible's weirder, wilder solo universe, this version on Okapi Blue Galaxy vinyl is exclusive to Rough Trade.
Play it loud - play it often.
