The Album Collection 1977-1980
Songwriter for Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris. Near-bandmate with Eagles and Jackson Browne. In a career thatâs now into its sixth decade, Walter Egan has perhaps defined what it means to be a âsongwriterâs songwriterâ.
Between 1977 and 1980 Egan recorded four studio albums for Columbia Records in the USA. Gathered here for the first time on The Album Collection 1977-1980, those albums â Fundamental Roll, Hi Fi, Not Shy and The Last Stroll â show an accomplished songwriter and supernaturally talented musician at the very peak of his powers. Each one includes the very cream of L.A.âs âgolden eraâ players and producers while âFundamental Rollâ was produced in its entirety by Lindsey Buckingham. Meanwhile, its vocal arrangements were created by Stevie Nicks and both provide backing vocals at the precise moment Fleetwood Macâs career was going supernova with âRumoursâ.
Presented here in a 7â deluxe packaging 4CD set with a 12-page illustrated book, sleeve notes have been provided by respected music writer Jason Draper (âPrince: Chaos and Disorderâ, âLed Zeppelin Revealedâ, âOnly The Good Die Youngâ) based on a new interview with Walter Egan who reflects on his work and career.
