54 YEARS, 17 ALBUMS – AND GOING OUT IN A HIGH

So here we are.  54 years on from his 1971 debut album, Acoustic Confusion, venerable singer-songwriter Steve Tilston has issued his last offering.  Last Call is the 17th album of original material from the esteemed writer and performer and, sad to say, it’ll be his last.  But he’s going out on a high, that’s for sure.

Fairport Convention chronicler Nigel Schofield had a lot to say when asked to summarise Last Call, and I make no apology for using his words here: “With the empathetic accompaniment of good friends and long-term musical collaborators [of whom, more shortly…], Steve looks both back and ahead as he traverses the musical spectrum from social and political comment to rustic reflection, from autobiography to eternal geographical history, across blues, traditional folk, poetry and even a hint of jazz.  It’s a thing of audible joy and circumstantial sadness.”

Thanks Nigel – That’s Last Call in a nutshell.
