The Al Stewart Archives En algún universo paralelo, Al Stewart publicó este álbum a principios de los 90. Pero no en este universo. , así que lo he creado a partir de temas inéditos y lo he subido a RU-vid para que lo disfrutes. Creo que fluyen muy bien como álbum; espero que lo disfrutéis.
Accidentalmente quise escuchar este álbum ya que no lo veo oficial, pero me llama mucho la atención la última canción y título del álbum, es una canción de Per Gessle para Roxette para el abum debut del 86' aunque fue escrita mucho antes, es sabido que Per escribe canciones para otros quizás fue hecho para el Per también quizo ponerlo en su álbum para Roxette
I the Prime Universe, this album was released instead of “Last Days of the Century”, the latter was unreleased and compiled on YT in 2023. We don’t live in the prime universe, sadly. But the prime folks would still wish they lived in ours.
Blue September and Ten Cents are both available for streaming and/or download purchase. Ten Cents is on The Last Days of The Century as a bonus track. Blue September is the title track from the jazz group Windows 1985 album
@@arttray3176 Yes absolutely. I'd also love a new interview with Al to be recorded as part of the box set where he goes through the tracks and shares his memories of them.
@@TheAlStewartArchives David, his lead guitarist with the Empty Pockets told me that Al has written GREAT new material, some of which is recorded already. Ron Scott, his manager, confirmed that the songs are amazing. It would be a crime if these new masterpieces were never released. Kickstarter?
@@rac7773 I discussed this a while back on the Facebook group and have heard Al talk about it - I think Al's issue is that people have kind of stopped buying albums, and he mentioned that he's never released an album that didn't sell at least 10,000 copies and doesn't want to start now. I agree the fans would happily fund the release of any material from him but I think ultimately it has to be a personal decision from Al. If there is a kickstarter I'd definately contribute!
@@TheAlStewartArchives I would certainly pay a few bills toward it myself. It just seems a tragedy to waste any of the works of the musical and lyrical genius Al Stewart. According to Ron Scott, these songs DESERVE to be on albums for posterity. Thanks for your response, David. Bob
When an artist makes the music they want to make, saying the things they want to say, instead of changing who they are to become popular, they are being true to their art.
You are most welcome, Carlos. Thank you for listening. I don't actually know what tracks Tori did the backing vocals on - I'd always assumed that's her harmonizing with Al on the song "Call of the Wild". I could ask on the Al Stewart Facebook group for you if you'd like more info? I do know that Tori also sang on some tracks from the "Last Days of the Century" album though I'm not sure which ones - I think "Red Toupe" was one.
@@carelopes OK I shall ask. By the way if you have Facebook, feel free to join the "Al Stewart Fans and Bandmates" group. Lots of cool people on it, including Peter White (yes that one!).
Ya know I never heard the similarity! I'll ask on the Al Stewart Facebook group and see if you are correct - maybe it is an early demo of what became Antartica! Well spotted!
Hi Rush - I've added the track list to the description for you now. I'll also add it to the bottom of this comment: 1. Four of a Kind (0:00) 2. I Swam (3:17) 3. I Told You So (7:28) 4. Japanese Garden (10:42) 5. Blue September (15:05) 6. Ten Cents (20:07) 7. Call of the Wild (24:12) 8. All that She Wants is a Lover (28:03)
I like his 70s albums but not the 80s purely for one reason, 80s drumming recording. The vogue was this echoed tin can souless sound which I hate with a passion. They all done it from Elton John & the rest of the big names.
And this is why I find the Admiralty Lights box set to be such a massive disappointment. Why are more than half of these songs missing from that set? Major failure on the part of whoever put it together.
I ended up not buying the set despite being a huge fan. Still happy it was released; though I'd much rather see official versions of what I've tried to achieve here; putting together collections of unreleased tracks that 'work' as one album.
