When psychedelia had run it's course in Britain at the end of the 60s, the predominant trend was to get hairier and heavier and more long-winded. Many musicians, however, were still hung up on the trappings of psychedelia's home-grown strain, having found a musical home in it's mournful evocations of Victoriana, it's village green gentility and it's nods to the pleasures of suburbia. They wanted to carry on using woodwinds, cellos and melancholic melodies. As the advent of the singer-songwriter offered another possible avenue for these refuseniks, a new brand of pop was discernible - the English Baroque sound. First compiled by writer and Saint Etienne member Bob Stanley 15 years ago, the original "Tea And Symphony" CD now sells for between £50 and £100. This new and improved edition will be the first time the title has ever appeared on vinyl and features several tracks that haven't been reissued before; Lora Findlay's distinctive artwork has similarly been given a fresh lick of paint. A definitive collection of English Baroque, this compilation includes familiar classics like Colin Blunstone's Say 'You Don't Mind' and Honeybus' 'I Can't Let Maggie Go', as well Vigrass and Osborne's original recording of the Justin Hayward hit 'Forever Autumn' and master of the observational, homespun pop Clifford T Ward's 'Coathanger'. In-demand rarities include Jon Plum's gothic tale 'Alice', Mike Batt's exquisite 'Fading Yellow' and Bombadil's 'When The City Sleeps', a rare Barclay James Harvest spin-off single. To the delight of people who thought the mine of great 60s and 70s 45s had been exhausted, previously undiscovered gems by the likes of Matthew Bones (the Kinks-like parlour piece 'Two Sugars'), Erasmus Chorum (the epic 'Mary Jane') and Les Payne continue to be unearthed. Here are more than 20 of baroque pop's finest moments. Make yourself a pot of tea, find yourself a comfy armchair, place a ginger cat on your lap and sit back. Compiled and annotated by Bob Stanley.

Would buy again
Size: Standard (2 Pillows + 2 Protectors), Style: Medium, Configuration: Pillows + Protectors
I bought these pillows with the pillow protectors included. After 15 minutes of fluffing the pillows in the dryer they took their shape and were ready to use.

Nice medium thickness. Fits in shames great. Firm for a medium but will work well
Size: Standard (2 Pillows + 2 Protectors), Style: Medium, Configuration: Pillows + Protectors
Nice pillows for the price. I got the medium thickness and it’s a little stiff, but I think once slept on, it should soften up a bit, but if you like a softer or flatter pillow, definitely go for the soft one. But the quality seems to be very well-made. It puffed up straight out of the package. It didn’t have any smell whatsoever, and it fit perfectly in my standard size shams.

Loved them but may not last too long
Size: Standard (2 Pillows + 2 Protectors), Style: Medium, Configuration: Pillows + Protectors
I’m kind of torn on these. I love them and I want to buy more because they were very affordable and very comfy! I’ve had them less than six months and they lose their plumpness after a few nights sleep but they are easy to fluff back up. They are pretty thick and firm but form to your head and neck perfectly..for me at least. I’ve tossed them in the washer and dryer and they have been fine. Fluffed right back up perfectly. The material inside seems to be clumping together now. it’s easy to fluff them back out but you can notice the spaces where they’re starting to clump and even though they can be fluffed again it does seem they are starting to become compacted and I find myself having to fluff them more often. I’ll see how much longer they’ll last, but I will buy again because they are pretty comfortable. I love the covers they came with also. They stay cool and wash easy! Overall, great for the price, maybe not in the long run if you continue to buy, but I’ll see how much longer they’ll stay in good shape!

So comfortable!
Size: Standard (2 Pillows + 2 Protectors), Style: Medium, Configuration: Pillows + Protectors
The best pillow I've ever gotten. I always slept on two pillows and now I only need this one. The height is perfect and it is so comfortable. I highly recommend this pillow for people like me who could never find the right one.
