Looking for a copy of Brendan Perry's - Eye of the Hunter LP on 4AD from 1999

Apologies if this is against local protocol, but I saw this album mentioned here in a couple of threads and I'm on an exhaustive hunt to find a copy of the elusive LP.

Anyone here have a copy you would sell or know of another for sale anywhere? I'm offering $175 if you have one and will sell.

While I wait for one to turn up, please sing this albums' praise and hope for a reissue.

Thank you,

Matt

It's a tough one to find. Have you added it to your discogs.com wishlist? You'll get alerts if one comes up for sale.

Greetings - I really like this album but only have the CD. Did not know there was a vinyl version out there. Based on the era thee might not be but I have not looked - will keep and eye out for one.

That being said, I love DCD and have scene them a few times but tended to gravitate toward Brendon's contributions to the band. A few standouts for me are

  • How Fortunate the Man with None
  • Black Sun
  • The Ubiquitous Mr Lovegrove
  • Xavier

Are there others songs you all like?

I've been watching on Discogs for a few years, but they always sell before I see them.

There's a copy on ebay right now, but the seller won't budge from $250, and that's too rich for my blood.

I love the Americana feel of Eye of the Hunter. It really showcases how dynamic his musical ability is.

American Dreaming is another early solo song of his that I love.

DCD that feature his vocals that are great are:

Anywhere Out of the World on Within The Realm Of A Dying Sun

Severance from The Serpent's Egg is incredible

Ulysses also from The Serpent's Egg  also incredible

Fortune Presents Gifts Not According to the Book from Aion
