Bill Nelson - Dreamy Screens: Soundtracks From The Echo Observatory

Esoteric Recordings� imprint Cocteau Discs, dedicated to the work of BILL NELSON, are proud to announce the release of a deluxe 3 disc clamshell boxed set limited edition collection - �Dreamy Screens: Soundtracks from the Echo Observatory�. The set features three albums, all recorded at Bill Nelson�s Yorkshire home studio, the Echo Observatory, in 1981 and 1982 � �Sounding the Ritual Echo� (originally issued as a limited edition bonus LP with Bill�s 1981 album �Quit Dreaming and Get On the Beam�), �Das Kabinet� (a soundtrack to a production of �The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari� by The Yorkshire Actors Company issued as an LP on Bill�s Cocteau label in 1981) and �La Belle et La Bete� first issued as a limited edition bonus LP with Bill�s 1982 album �The Love That Whirls�). All of the recordings featured in this set demonstrate Bill�s creativity utilising primitive recording equipment by today�s standards. As Bill has stated; �The music was recorded on a domestic four track machine. A high degree of self-discipline was in order. All of the recordings forming �Dreamy Screens� have now become highly regarded in the prolific discography of Bill Nelson. Long out of print, this Cocteau Discs re-mastered limited edition presents these three wonderful albums once again, restoring the original artwork in the collection in a clamshell boxed set.
