STEVE TILSTON
Reaching Back
The Life and Music of Steve Tilston
CD 1 Reaching
Back takes us from Steve's debut album, through his
ground-breaking stays in London and Bristol, to his move north - and the
album that made him world-famous. It includes tracks from every album he
released in that period, as well as some new recordings made especially
for this set. Among the guests playing with Steve are John Renbourn, Lea
Nicholson, John Thorne, Chris Parkinson, Dave Pegg, Rick Kemp, Gary
Boyle, Rupert Hine, Maartin Allcock, Pete Zorn & Maggie Boyle
CD2 He Took Most Delight
features a decade of contrasts... keynote collaborations... classic
compositions... definitive solo work - This was the era that established
Steve as an international force. Climaxing in tracks from an acclaimed
solo album, this CD takes in his two groundbreaking albums with Maggie
Boyle, participation in WAZ and the all-star Fairport Supporters band.
CD3 Staring At
Time features the pick of
overlooked, unreleased gems join the established Tilston Classics in this
set, which brings the story up to date. Guests include Dave Pegg, Chris
Parkinson, Brooks Williams, "The Bedroom Choir", Pete Zorn, Maartin
Allcock, annA rydeR, Maggie Boyle, Andy Shepherd.
CD4 Do What You
Please is "The album Steve never made". Though he often includes cover
versions in his live set, they do not normally make it on to recordings,
so here, in songs "from other hands", is a musical autobiography of the
wide and wonderful Tilston influences and inspirations.
CD5 Bringing In
The Steves is a unique collection of cover versions of Steve's songs,
many recorded especially for this release, by the many artists and
performers around the world who have admired and performed his music.
Featuring Ralph McTell, Robin Williamson and others.
