"While Spectromorphic Iridescence - The Complete Ffolly overeggs the Rainbow Ffolly pudding, its core constituents - the stereo version of Sallies Fforth, the single, the demos and its telling of the full story - make the case that this was a band which should have been widely heard. It didn't happen then, but it can now".

""Spectromorphic Iridescence" and its seventy four tracks come in a tortoise shell box with each disc housed in a mini-LP sleeve with the original artwork. The twenty page full color booklet comes with an essay by David Wells, who compiled and annotated the collection, and is filled with photos of the band and its recordings as well as related memorabilia. Rainbow Ffolly has never sounded better, thanks to the mastering job of Simon Murphy for Another Planet Music. The set will be of great interest to fans and collectors of obscure 1960's recordings, psychedelic and otherwise, but will also be a wonderful discovery for those not familiar with the 2016 LP "Ffollow Up!" a fine bit of British rock and roll in its own right which has hitherto been nigh on impossible to procure. Many thanks to the folks at Cherry Red Records, UK, for offering this wonderful collection and at a most reasonable cost as icing on the cake".
