Thanks, John for the advance notice of the forthcoming release of music by Gordon Crosse. I was once told that Crosse, in common with others of his ilk, got so discouraged by the neglect suffered by his music that he gave up composition for a time. It will be good to have at least a few more examples on disc. I am not sure where he might stand in any "order of merit" but his music is at least interesting and worth hearing.
Completely agreed. What I heard of Gordon Crosse, makes him one of the finest voices from the 1960s. Am afraid he was scared away from the music scene due to the overratedness of 'experimental' music, in those years.

… music is not only an `entertainment’, nor a mere luxury, but a necessity of the spiritual if not of the physical life, an opening of those magic casements through which we can catch a glimpse of that country where ultimate reality will be found.  RVW, 1948
