Moss Elixir is an album by English singer-songwriter Robyn Hitchcock, released in 1996.
Moss Elixir came packaged in green and gold, continuing the theme of his earlier solo acoustic albums, I Often Dream of Trains and Eye.
The CD insert includes a short story: a vaguely autobiographical, surrealist account of Hitchcock in the afterlife, which weaves several images and titles from the album's contents into its storyline, including the elixir of the album's title.
When he re-emerged, he had dispensed with old group the Egyptians and begun working with new musicians, including Deni Bonet, a violinist with whom Hitchcock would collaborate several times in the years following.
[8] The Chicago Reader wrote that Hitchcock's "ringing guitar and gently Lennon-influenced singing are right up front, and other instruments appear only when the songs really ask for them ... Hitchcock hasn't sounded so engaged since 1990's Eye.
