Ramases was the creation and alter-ego of Martin Raphael (sometimes known as Barrington Frost), born in Sheffield, UK. Formerly an army PT instructor, whilst involved in a central heating business in Scotland, was inspired to assume the mantle of the Egyptian Pharaoh of whom he believed himself a reincarnation, and take up a musical career. Early singles (recorded with his wife, Dorthy Frost aka Selket) failed to make any impact, Space Hymns was recorded at Strawberry Studios in Stockport with soon-to-be members of 10cc. Glass Top Coffin was recorded following relocation to Felixstowe, and Ramases retired from the music business soon afterwards. He died in 1978 but his death was not widely reported in musical circles until the early 1990s. 01 - Golden Landing 02 - Long Long Time 03 - Now Mona Lisa 04 - God Voice 05 - Mind Island 06 - Only The Loneliest Feeling 07 - Sweet Reason 08 - Stepping Stones 09 - Saler Man 10 - Children Of The Green Earth 11 - Glass Top Coffin 12 - Golden Landing (Part II) LINK
