A welcome reissue of 2012’s tiny CDr edition of ‘A Paper Doll’s Whisper Of Spring’ by Vikki Jackman, Andrew Chalk, and Jean-Nöel Rebilly. It’s been beautifully remastered by Denis Blackham of Skye Mastering and pressed onto 140g vinyl with DMM cut and printed sleeve, plus a Japanese obi strip. Vikki’s third album (here accompanied by Andrew Chalk and Jean-Noel Rebilly- playing synthesizer and clarinet, respectively) after 2008’s Whispering Pages, is a more reflective collection of pieces, often centred around the electric piano and arrangements of reeds and electronics. Released on Chalk’s Faraway Press imprint in an edition of 400 copies, ‘A Paper Doll’s Whisper Of Spring’ finds its most just publication in the analogue medium, fitting to the quality of the spirit of the eight pieces it contains.
