From cover sticker on cellophane wrap:
Avocet Revisited is a four track EP commissioned as a companion piece to Bert Jansch's 1979 avian-themes masterstroke Avocet. Drawing inspiration from birds native to British waters (Bert himself was a keen ornithologist) Earth invited Edwin Collins, Modern Studies, Alasdair Roberts and Trembling Bells to each choose a species that particularly speaks to them, and base a track around it. The results have been universally graceful, evocative, and majestic - much like the creatures themselves.
