Und nocheinmal Vorfreude: Der unermuedliche Steven Wilson! Hoch gelobt fuer seine Stereo- und 5.1. Neuabmischungen alter Progrock-Klassiker von EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER, JETHRO TULL oder KING CRIMSON ist er auch in eigener Sache nicht untaetig, eher im Gegenteil. Nach THE RAVEN THAT REFUSED TO SING erscheint nun ein Doppel-Vinyl dass von ihm in den letzten sieben Jahren solo aufgenommene Coverversionen versammelt.

Die Auswahl ist recht spannend – wer haette gedacht dass sich Steven Wilson fuer ABBA’s „The Day Before You Came“, einem meiner all time favourite tracks der Schweden begeistern wuerde ? – Die DLP ist bestellt, Ende naechster Woche ist VÖ und ich werde hier erste Hoereindrucke berichten ! Stay tuned.

    A newly compiled and remastered 2LP vinyl which collects all the tracks from the 6 Cover Version singles that were released on Steven’s own label Headphone Dust (and on 7 inch single by ToneFloat) between 2003-2010. These completely solo singles were originally recorded and released quickly and with no artwork, with only the final release (Cover Version VI) coming in a special box to house all six CDs, with design by Carl Glover and a booklet of portraits of Steven by Hajo Mueller.

    This 12 track album now compiles the 6 cover versions on record one and the 6 originals that were on the “B sides” on record two. Pressed on double heavyweight (180g) vinyl, the tracks provide a fascinating insight into both SW’s musical taste and his development as a solo artist. The original artwork has been reworked by Carl Glover for the gatefold sleeve, which also now includes sleeve notes by Steven.
