Jakko M. Jakszyk

A King Crimson ProjeKct, A Scarcity Of Miracles is the debut release from (Jakko) Jakszyk, (Robert) Fripp, and (Mel) Collins.

Featuring a dream rhythm section comprising Gavin Harrison and Tony Levin, ASOM is a sonically rich and detailed collection of heartfelt songs, which manages to be both intimate and epic, complex yet immediate.

'One of my favourite albums of those where I am a determining element. It has the Crimson gene, but it is not quite KC.' - Robert Fripp

The album comes as a standard cd, a heavyweight 200gm gatefold vinyl edition and in a deluxe cd / dvda version (which features a 5.1 mix, 24/96 stereo, the ASOM video, and an album's worth of alternate mixes and improvs from the original sessions).

The vinyl version comes with a 12" poster containing PJ Crook's cover artwork and lyrics.

The Bruised Romantic Glee Club is the 5th and most personal solo album by composer Jakko M. Jakszyk.

Features Gavin Harrison, Robert Fripp, Mel Collins, Mark King (Level 42), Dave Stewart and Hugh Hopper amongst others.

“Deliciously Progtastic.” - Classic Rock (8/10)

“An intensely personal trip through his past…. Drool over Jakszyk’s multi-instrumental writing, daring sonic juxtapositions, daunting time signatures and mania for the Mellotron.” - Uncut Magazine (4/5)

A collection of songs and instrumentals that are all related to, or were intended for the album that became "The Bruised Romantic Glee Club"

A superb companion piece to Jakko's most highly regarded solo album.

Dating from 1994, Jakko M.Jakszyk's Kingdom Of Dust represented an accessible and melodic fusion of Pop sensibilities and Art Rock ambition that found Jakko working alongside the ever-inventive trio of Jansen, Barbieri and Karn (ex-Japan/Rain Tree Crow).

For this special download edition of the mini-album an extra track, Fly, has been added.

All proceeds will be donated to the Mick Karn Appeal.

'Literate adult pop with more than a sprinkle of luscious art-rock atmosphere.' Misfit City

'For my pal Mick.' - Jakko
