Stewart / Gaskin

Keyboardist Dave Stewart and vocalist Barbara Gaskin started their careers in Canterbury-related English bands of the late '60s before joining forces in 1981. Their first single 'It's My Party' was a number one hit worldwide, launching them on a sophisticated pop-based trajectory which has lasted to the present day.

Dave Stewart & Barbara Gaskin
Hour Moon

Since Green and Blue was recorded over an extended period it was inevitable that new songs would emerge during its making - consequently, by the time it was completed there was too much material to fit on a single CD. Hence this bonus EP, which contains two extra songs originally intended for the album (one a highly entertaining cover of a legendary rock'n'roll tune, the other a beautiful ballad in the trademark Stewart / Gaskin mould). Drummer Gavin Harrison appears on both and Andy Reynolds plays guitar on the first. Also included is the extended version of 'Henry & James' (requested by many listeners since its appearance on a Flexidisc in US Keyboard magazine back in 1985), and two extra tracks (one hitherto unreleased) which celebrate the genius of maverick British pop producer Joe Meek.
