Most of you will know the great "Sitting On A Blunestone" from different compilations. In 1997 Tenth Planet released an album (Tenth Planet TP 034) full of unreleased material of this Potter's Bar (Hertfordshire) band. Also included are their one and only single, the awful "Albert (A Pet Sunflower)" and the appealing "Monday Morning". There's a lot more to find here on this collection, for instance "Evil Woman", that sounds very american or the flower-pop track "Morpheus". An enjoyable album which holds a good standard.Tracklist:
- Albert (A pet sunflower)
- Monday morning
- Sunday school
- Evil woman
- Obsolete incident
- Music to watch us by
- Sitting on a blunestone
- So happy
- Morpheus

- So much love to give you

all the best...
OK, I have put your link on my blog. Now it's your turn.
I never got around to picking this one up. It's actually quite good. Very high quality British pop, with a few excellent psych tracks. Thanks for this post.
Great blog, thanks for the post,Grant
Thanks for putting this music out there... Love your site!
Quite a treat finding and listening to Tales Of Justine. Thanks!
Phenomenal blog! (and i much desire to trample albert the sunflower)
Simply a great album.
I've wanted to hear this for years. Thanks for sharing it.
Hey, I have a couple of compilation CD's with Monday Morning on it, so I was searching for more by Tales of Justine. Thanks for making this available!
I can't believe that after all the years people are still interested in The Tales. I was the second drummer & took over after the sad death of Bruce. Dave, Paul M & I all went to school together. I was known as Locke then but took my step fathers name 'King' after he married my mum. I'm still playing, recently finished a five year stint with Australian guitarist, Gwyn Ashton but now doing much better things, soon to be released. Can't thank you enough for creating the blog.
