Described by Melody Maker's Chris Welch as a \"science fiction pantomime album\", the songs are linked with a story on the back cover which details the dream of Simon Simopath to fly. \"Pentecost Hotel\" was released as a single with the non-album b-side, \"Feelin' Shattered\". \"Wings of Love\" was the next single, also with a non-album b-side, \"Requiem to John Coltrane. In a retrospective review on AllMusic, Stewart Mason feels that the \"unashamedly twee early concept album\", with its \"deliberately childlike tone\", despite being \"a collection of unconnected songs forced together\" in a \"rather silly story\", is a \"uniformly solid set of well-constructed psych-pop tunes\". The Story of Simon Simopath was selected for The MOJO Collection as one of the most significant albums in musical history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41492104052833,"sku":"0889397884369","price":21.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_11898973_1029377.jpg?v=1718301489","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/0889397884369-the-story-of-simon-simopath-purple-vinyl","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
