Title

Come Out Fighting Ghengis Smith is the second Roy Harper album from 1968. If Stormcock and Flat Baroque are his finest, Ghengis has all the seeds of what led up to them. Poetic, witty and defiantly uncompromising, this is pure Harper. In a Beautiful Rambling Mess sums it up superbly. The title track has all the wordplay, melody and piss taking that makes Harper one of a kind. Part Lord Buckley, part Keats, plus Bert Jansch's raw bedsit chops in terms of Folk guitar virtuosity.

LP - Remastered 180 Gram Vinyl. Packaged in deluxe Gatefold sleeve including heavy inner sleeve with lyrics and notes.

CD - Remastered 2019 by Roy Harper and John Fitzgerald at Lettercolm Studio in Timoleague, West Cork, Ireland. Updated artwork including lyrics and comprehensive new sleeve notes. Artwork Redesign by Harry Pearce at Pentagram.
