Elfland — Leslie Fish

Our jam-packed sequel to Angel with a Sword. This epic project makes available 31 newly mixed and mastered Leslie Fish tracks. This project skews more towards the lighthearted, alongside Leslie’s songs about space exploration.

Like Angel with a Sword, this project is again massive. You’ll get:

1. 17 new concert performance tracks (recorded 2000-2001)
2. 6 newly produced studio bonus tracks. These include an all-new, 50th anniversary arrangement of “Hope Eyrie” (produced by Michael Moricz), as well as new arrangements of Leslie’s best-known space songs — like “Witnesses’ Waltz” and “A Toast For Unknown Heroes” — produced and engineered by Kristoph Klover. Backing musicians on these studio bonus tracks include Michelle “Vixy” Dockrey, Vic Tyler, Benjamin Lange, Dave Clement, and many more.
3. 7 more downloadable live bonus tracks we opted to leave off the album — warts and all.
4. 3.5 hours of Fish concert recordings from ChiCon 2000, LosCon 2000, ConChord 2001. (minus two songs due to copyright)
5. A 24-page photo booklet, capturing many never-before-seen photos of Leslie’s time in fandom.

Sound recordings by Gerry Tyra, Kristoph Klover and J. Spencer Love. We’re again grateful to Phil Klum for taking on such a massive mastering & mixing project, and to Tineke Lemmens for masterminding the packaging and photobooklet (including calligraphy by Ans Hameleers.)
