In the United Kingdom, it peaked at number 37 and it was the first to be in the Top 40 since 1992’s record, “99.9F°”. It was recorded under her own label, Amanuensis Productions. It was distributed under Aimee Mann’s label, Superego, in the U.S.
The album, “Tales from the Realm of the Quean of Pentacles”, was recorded at three N.Y. studios. They include Clubhouse Studios, Kyserike Station and One East Studios. Also—it was recorded at Studio Disk Barrandov in Prague, Czech Republic and produced by Gerry Leonard.
