Barkston Ash by Ian Neal

Here we have "Barkston Ash," the fourth album from Ian Neal.
Pastoral symphonic prog in a 1970s vein could be a starting point to describe it.

It has been developed across the last few years and tracks have been released individually as and when they have been completed. The recent release (Dec.2021) of the final track, "Come Harvesting!" marked the end of the work in terms of composition. More recently, the track "Ash Phrixus" was overhauled, remixed and embellished, with the earlier mix now offered as a "bonus track." A further bonus track of some work in progress is offered with the sketch "Barkston Summer."
