Steven Wilson Presents / Various Intrigue-Progressive Sounds In Uk Alternative CD

Four CD set. Demon Records is proud to release Intrigue - Steve Wilson Presents: Progressive Sounds In UK Alternative Music 1979-89, a compilation assembled by acclaimed musician, singer-songwriter, and record producer, Steven Wilson. "This is my personally-curated attempt to redress the balance, and to perhaps introduce any '80s-sceptics out there to the idea that conceptual thinking and ambition didn't suddenly evaporate after '77... ambitious, weird and thrilling music was all around you in the '80s -if you looked in the right places." - Steven Wilson. The collection explores the creativity, experimentation and progressive spirit of alternative British music from 1979-1989. Artists include Wire, XTC, The Stranglers, Ultravox, The Durutti Column, Cocteau Twins, Kate Bush, Tears For Fears, and many more. Includes book with an introduction by Steven Wilson, and extensive track-by-track liner notes by James Nice. Mastered by Phil Kinrade at AIR Mastering.
