about

Poets and Visionaries DNDC009CD marked the departure for Mark St.John Ellis from the previously sung and choral compositions and a return to the spoken word from his original background as an actor. Legacy of Corruption DNDC014CD continues this theme which is a selection of poems by Charles Baudelaire set to music. It was recorded in J.A.M Studios Ireland, engineered and co - produced by James Quinn.

Please note this downloadable version excludes the track Litanies of Satan which is on the retrospective Observations of an atheist. The full version is available on the few remaining cd copies and will be on the vinyl release in the future.
