    I just found 15 cds of 'Operation Fascination'. These were used for the promo campaign in 2010 but knowing this was the only chance I was going to have to press a physical product, I went for a full-scale production. It's a lovely thing to behold. The cover art by Pippa Ashton incorporating Gemma Cossins' photo. The liner notes list a Myspace page, ha! Comes with a digital copy of the album. I will sign it if you want. Ships media mail in the U.S.

about

Released along with 'Pink Lights' on Dogbox in 2006. Title comes from Chapter 2 of Ian Fleming’s 'The Spy Who Loved Me'. More 'violet's in the lyrics.

lyrics

rainfall, the sound of love, i make my way back home
streetlamps cast long shadows down, streets we used to go

matchbooks, torn letters i, picture the way you kiss

photographs brittle now, in violet-scented dust
violet light, ripples o’er, memories untouched

matchbooks, torn letters i, dream of the way you held me then
in those days...

streetlamps dim, as morning sighs, violet fading night
winter chill though winter’s gone, pale winter light
it’s all so still, and all still there, ribbon-tied before
time to close tired violet eyes and dream of you no more
