The beautiful debut album by Steve Tilston was originally released by TheVillage Thing label in 1971. Housed in a beautiful sleeve it contained ten wonderful songs, mostly played on just acoustic guitar (plus voice, of course), which showed the great talent of a young Tilston that must have been listening to a lot of stuff byBert Jansch,Nick Drake,Donovan,Wizz Jones orDavy Graham. Occasionally he is also accompained by Dave Evans (guitar & vocals), Keith Warmington (harmonica & vocal), John Turner (string bass) and Pete Finch (violin). The ten songs on the album are original compositions written by Tilston himself, and theWah Wah LP will feature two extra bonus tracks from 1978, previously unreleased on vinyl format, plus an insert with the lyrics.
