Anton Barbeau - The Automatic Door

After numerous albums, of which this must be something like the thirteenth, Anton unleashes his best work to date. Anyone familiar with his live shows will know the wacky persona which, although working well live, has sometimes grated on record. The Automatic Door however is a lovable bundle of fun.The hippy-ish fuzz pop for which Ant is best known is present and correct and better than ever. You Can Move A Mountain, Beyond The Vally Of The Dolphins and the title track are among the best he's ever written. Alongside that, there's the standout tracks in the form of the woozy and drunken Ring Never Bell and the chaotically psychedelic I've Been Craving Lately.
The album also sees a new label, Oxford's own Shifty Disco doing the honours this time. My suggestion is that you check out this album, see Ant live and the delve into the back catalogue where many delights are to be found.
