''Born in Captivity'' is the twelfth studio album by English folk / rock singer-songwriter and guitarist Roy Harper. It was first released in 1984. Essentially, ''Born In Captivity'' is the demo tape for his previous 1982 release, ''Work of Heart''. == History == Originally, ''Born in Captivity'' was released as a collectors item on Harper's Hardup label. 830 copies were made and sold quickly to Harper's fans. Demand was such that the record was reissued in 1985 (with variations to the sleeve notes, colours and labels 〔(Discography and cover notes )〕) on the Awareness Records label. Awareness Records also released cassette and CD versions in 1989. In 1994, Harper's own label, Science Friction, combined ''Born in Captivity'' with ''Work of Heart'' to form the Double CD version of this album currently available. The album's cover shows Harper behind bars, the numbers "120641" represent his date of birth (12 June 1941) and the "No.006" is a reference to Patrick McGoohans character, "Number Six", in the British, 1960s TV programme, The Prisoner. Harper referenced this programme earlier in his career on his 1969 album ''Folkjokeopus'', with a track entitled "McGoohans Blues". N.B. The songs "No Woman is Safe" and "Jack of Hearts" are basically the same, containing identical lyrics. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Born in Captivity」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
