 Singer songwriter Juliet Lawson’s album, ‘Boo’, was released on the Sovereign label in the UK in 1972. The album was the confident debut of a young British artist and featured twelve of Lawson’s own compositions.
 In the same wave of early 1970s English singer songwriters such as Nick Drake, Vashti Bunyan and Christine McVie and despite being described at the time as ‘Britain’s answer to Joni Mitchell’, ‘Boo’ was to prove her only major label release, with limited commercial success.
 Over the next 50 years, the album’s reputation has slowly grown and is today an expensive and collectible item. ‘Boo’ is presented here in its entirety.
 The first pressing of the vinyl edition of the album also comes with a bonus 7” single featuring two early demo tracks (also included on the CD format), produced by ex-Yardbirds founder Paul Samwell-Smith, who also produced Carly Simon and Cat Stevens.
 LP + 7” format includes digital download code.
 Includes interview with Juliet Lawson and exclusive photography.
 Press - Reviews & features in Mojo, The Wire, The Guardian, The Times, The Telegraph, Pitchfork, Irish Times, The Observer, Clash, Vice, Metro, Record Collector, Uncut, Independent, Q.
