about

This EP got a cover of a Sandy Denny’s By the time it gets dark so you can call it a sort of forerunner to Fading within the dwindling sun, which only consist of Sandy songs. By the time it gets dark only exists in a demo version in Sandy’s production so we thought we could ''finalize'' a song that didn't made it on any of Sandys records.

We are also very fond of Donovan’s double album HMS Donovan, which got a special magical fairy tale sense. So the next song became a version of Jabberwocky from that album. A song which Donovan had written music to the Lewis Carrol poem.

Even if we on this stage had released our self-penned songs on other labels we thought that it could be nice to have one of our own songs on a Fruits de Mer record to show another side of Us and Them. We choosed the six and half minutes long Do I know you? on the other side of the EP.
