Jon Anderson, Rick Wakeman Gentle Giant, Strawbs and more on new Tony Visconti box set

Tony Visconti

Former Yes members Jon Anderson and Rick Wakeman, The Moody Blues, Renaissance, Gentle Giant, Strawbs, Argent and Procol Harum are some of the prog delights on a brand new box set celebrating the work of fames producer Tony Visconti.

Produced By Tony Visconti, which has been curated by the producer himself, is a limited edition  77-track four-disc CD boxset, or a 60-track six vinyl LP boxset and is also available as a 14-track double vinyl album, which will be released through Edsel and Demon records on October 20.

"This boxset covers five and a half decades of my efforts in the art of making iconic recordings," says Visconti. "Some of it is familiar and some will have a eureka moment, ‘I didn’t know Visconti produced that one!'"

Widely recognised as one of the most important producers of the rock age, Visconti is closely associated with David Bowie, with whom he worked on 14 albums, including the celebrated Berlin trilogy of "Heroes", Low and Lodger and Bowie's final album, 2016's Blackstar, and Marc Bolan and T-Rex, with whom he worked on ten albums.

Visconti also worked with Thin Lizzy, U2, Manic Street Preachers, Boomtown Rats, The Move, The Alarm, Adam Ant, Hazel O'Connor and more, all of whom also feature on Produced By Tony Visconti.

The CD box set is housed in a deluxe 80-page casebound book and the vinyl set is housed in a deluxe slipcase with a 60-page (12x12) booklet, with previously unseen photographs, an introduction by Visconti, extensive track-by-track liner notes by author and journalist Mark Paytress (including track-by-track commentaries by Tony), and tributes from a selection of featured artists.

Pre-order Produced By Tony Visconti.
