Eno and Kraftwerk-loved orchestrals.

Jeffes founded Penguin Cafe Orchestra in 1972, inspired by vivid, accidental poisoning-induced, dream tripping.

Helmed by Jeffes – who recorded many of the instrumentals on the group’s studio albums – PCO released their debut LP on Brian Eno’s Obscure Records label in 1976, before playing their first major concert opening for Kraftwerk at London’s Roundhouse later that year.

Union Cafe was the last studio album recorded by the original Penguin Cafe Orchestra and marked a move towards a definitive English pastoral sound combined with larger string arrangements set against longer solo piano pieces,” shares Simon’s son Arthur.

The album’s release commemorates the 20th anniversary of Simon’s passing. Arthur’s group Penguin Cafe will also be performing Union Cafe in full, 11th December at London’s Union Chapel.
