Distant days : solo acoustic recollections

"In a career that has spanned four decades, this release is not a `Best Of' collection, listeners would be better directed to either 2007's 5 CD boxed-set Reaching Back: the Life and Music of Steve Tilston or even 1999's A Greening Wind, the first collection of songs and instrumental pieces from 1971 to 1992. Indeed except for the final track, the much-lauded The Slip Jigs And Reels, the 19 songs and instrumentals selected are less obvious and possibly less familiar items from his formidable canon of work, and their re-working makes this an exceptional album indeed".

"Much admired as an artist, much covered as a songwriter, 'Distant Days' is a timely celebration of the gentle force of nature that is Steve Tilston. With some lovely guitar, poignant lyrics and gorgeous melodies, 'Distant Days' is turning out to be one of my favorite releases of this summer. Highly recommended".
