The album Left Phase Blue by Lloyd Sanderson is about coming home to the music we love. A collection of songs I hope will remind my generation of a time when both life and music were fresh and exciting. Radios rang to the sounds of The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, CCR and Led Zeppelin. This music became the sound track of my youth and as I grew Aussie Rock was maturing with artists like Ross Wilson & Daddy Cool, AC/DC, The Angels and Cold Chisel.
With this album, Lloyd has truly found his voice as an artist, with a fusion classic rock, blues and R&B, that echo his formative years. This is the album that he should have recorded in 1977. Stand out tracks like the spiritually transcendent Torn and soaring Lovers’ Seed will leave you wondering where this man has been hiding!.

Blue crystal music was started in response to the amazing talent that came through our recording studio. Ais typical with a lot of musical acts many songs never ever make it to completion due to band breakups, lack of motivation or poor organisational skills.
