Stephen Duffy is a prolific and much feted British songwriter whose music career began 30 years ago.
This 2CD collection, compiled by Stephen and completely remastered from the original tapes, takes in both his solo and Lilac Time work. Having begun his career in the embryonic Duran Duran he went on to find solo fame as Tin Tin and (the orginal!) Duffy intertwined with his band project The Lilac Time. In 2005 he co-wrote Robbie Williams multi million selling Intensive Care album and has also worked with Nick Rhodes, Nigel Kennedy and Alex James.
The 36 track set includes 2 previously unreleased songs - one a brand new piece and the second a radical reworking of his biggest hit 'Kiss Me'.
The initial release of the album comes in a beautiful digipack with an expanded lyric booklet complete with personal musings from Stephen on each track.
