Dave Cloud was a maverick.
Sometimes a singer, sometimes a songwriter and sometimes an actor, the American talent was always engaging.
Too unique, too distinct to enter the mainstream, his acid-fried songwriting recalled Captain Beefheart's work or even fellow lost soul Roky Erikson.
Passing away earlier this year, Fire Records have assembled a posthumous album which should hopefully illuminate his work for further generations.
Dave Cloud and the Gospel Of Power will release 'Today Is The Day That They Take Me Away' on August 14th, with Clash able to premiere new cut 'Cookie Crumbles'.
Check it out now.
If you're in the area, a special tribute show will be held in Nashville on August 1st at the Springwater Supper Club.
