A Pinch of Nutmeg Album

It's 1983.
Wearing a seatbelt is now the law in the UK in cars. Karen’s Carpenter has just died.
Synth pop is top in the shops, but Nutmeg's Clive Masters is not happy with the news that he’s seen about the new New Romantic music scene. Never a big fans on synthesisers (he bought a Moog in 1975 but couldn't turn it on) he retreats to his lighthouse in Tintagel to host medieval banquets for his Luddite folk friends, Ian Anderson, Bert Jansch, Chas, Dave and little Mike Oldfield.
Meanwhile, Benji and Wendy Wendle have moved to London, bought a hot new Casio Portasound and can be found most nights at the Blitz Club, hanging out with a strange Steve and A Flock of Seagulls. It is during this time that the pair release the one-off single “One-Off Single”, a misguided attempt to cash in on the new 80’s trend of cashing in.
Masters, meanwhile, is "borrowing" the tableware for his lavish banquets from Mark Schnikleman, an old University friend who has made it big in the world of kitchenware, opening a large chain of two shops called Divers in Wigmore Street and Marylebone Lane.
But Schnikleman is unhappy. Masters “forgot” to “pay” for the “tableware” (most of which is broken) so Schnikleman asks Nutmeg if they'd do some promotional songs and radio jingles in payment for the broken crockery. Clive manages to talk Benji and Wendy into it.
The songs and jingles get airplay from mad, cap-wearing Kenny Everett on Radio 1 and become instant hits with New Romantics and lost 80's folkies alike.
Inspired by the famous Beatles rooftop concert, which took place around the corner and down a bit 14 years earlier, a Nutmeg gig is arranged in the summer of '83 outside the Wigmore Street branch of Divers and on that hot, balmy evening, the 80's Blitz kids and the 70's folkies are united for one night - John Martyn chatting about fry-ups to Martin Fry; Neil Tennant sipping a Tennents with Fred Neil.
Alas, there are no known recordings of this landmark synth/folk rave up/shindig.
We are, however, blessed to be left with much of Nutmeg's unfinished kitchenware based synth folk pop album, ‘A Pinch of Nutmeg’. Turn on your neon Club Tropicana sign, light up a joss stick and enjoy - maybe even have a fiddle with a Rude Bits cube as you do so.
