The Apple Bed Green Vinyl

Trends come and trends go but Nick Heyward is proof that great songwriting is timeless. In the UK, at least, the mid 03990s will be best remembered as the time of Britpop, a return to catchy guitardriven Pop tunes, that drew inspiration from the Beat scene 30 years earlier, and offered a more upbeat, optimistic alternative to the imported Grunge movement. To those familiar with Nick039s work, this was nothing new. Demon Records are delighted to present a new suite of reissues celebrating Nicks work from this era.In a move which would have surprised many at the time, Nick039s sixth solo album The Apple Bed was originally released in August 1997 on Creation Records though not on LP. As with Tangled, Demon Records will be making it available on apple green vinyl for the very first time. Among other things, Creation and particularly their biggest act, Oasis was closely associated with Britpop, a movement that sought to emulate concise, wellcrafted songs of the Beat era thirty years earlier. A path that Nick had been following successfully for many years, as is evident on the singles included here, 039Today039, 039The Man You Used To Be039 and 039Stars In Her Eyes039.
