About this album
Mike Batt’s The Hunting Of The Snark is a lavish concept album that turns Lewis Carroll’s comic poem into a witty, theatrical pop-rock work. Issued in 1986, it blends symphonic arrangements, contemporary pop instincts and stage-soundtrack drama into a single extended narrative, with Batt writing, producing and shaping the whole project. The album moves between spoken passages, melodic set-pieces and orchestral flourishes, giving Carroll’s surreal journey a grand, story-driven frame. Its mix of humour, fantasy and ambitious arrangement made it one of Batt’s most distinctive recordings and a striking example of mid-1980s crossover songwriting.
