CATERWAUL - The Nature Of Things, 1987 [Needle Drop]



I put in a request a few weeks ago for this album at Willard's. No one it seems has it to share, so I purchased it and ripped it today.
 Seems to be fairly obscure. Think of Romeo Void meets The Cult. That's my take anyway. Betsy Martin on vocals seems to have quite the following on the web. Fine, so called 'Alternative Rock' from the 80's. 

Tracklist:
A1 A Flower And A Stone     4:04
A2 Yonder, A Honey Sky     3:01
A3 Moth To Rust     3:46
A4 Cinnamon Color Of My Heart     3:24
A5 Tickled Whale     3:22
B1 Way Beyond     4:35
B2 Hence The Hangover     4:07
B3 Butter And Eggs     3:45
B4 Maeven     4:57
B5 Diminutive Do Se Do     3:16

    Bass – Fred Cross
    Drums – Kevin Pinnt
    Engineer – Joe Carrao
    Guitar, Mandolin – Mark Schafer
    Producer – Caterwaul
    Vocals, Mandolin – Betsy Martin
 
 3 more vinyl rips can be found at downunderground's blog. Highly recommended. Enjoy!

    1987: The Orioles stunk; and music began to decline. Oh, well. I was listening to one of your HFS tapes in the car today. So thanks

    Good description: Romeo Void meets the Cult. Thanks for helping with my ever widening search to find 'New' Old music.

    I searched and found the rest of the Caterwaul catalog in the wormhole. Beholden, Pin and Web, and Portent Hue--all good. Wonder what Betsy Martin is doing these days?

    Is it possible for a re-up of this hard to find classic? Got all their other albums except this one. Many thanks in advance!

    If you can provide a link, and share your Caterwaul, that would be awesome.
    Thanks
