About this item

Erased Tapes are proud to reissue 'The Red Book' by Penguin Cafe, with an expanded vinyl track list which now includes the CD and digital-only 'And Yet…' plus two tracks from the limited-edition 'Umbrella' EP. This new edition will be available on limited translucent vinyl and CD, both with updated art from Studio Torsten Posselt utilising the original drawing from renowned British sculptor and Simon Jeffes’ partner Emily Young.

Penguin Cafe was founded by Arthur Jeffes in 2009, bringing together a talented and disparate group of musicians initially to perform his father Simon Jeffes’ legacy of world-renowned Penguin Cafe Orchestra music, ten years after his untimely death in 1997. Following the release of 'A Matter of Life' shortly after founding, 'The Red Book' was released in 2014 to critical and fan acclaim.
