Description
NEW REMASTERED & EXPANDED 2 CD EDITION OF THE CLASSIC 1987 AMBIENT DOUBLE ALBUM BY BILL NELSON
WITH 21 BONUS TRACKS DRAWN FROM THE ORIGINAL 1988 CD EDITION & A RARE LIMITED EDITION EP
Esoteric Recordings’ imprint Cocteau Discs, dedicated to the work of BILL NELSON, are proud to announce the release of a deluxe 2 disc digi pack limited edition of the classic collection “Chance Encounters in the Garden of Lights”.
Originally issued on Bill’s Cocteau label in 1987, the double set featured two distinct works; “The Angel at the Western Window” and “The Book of Inward Conversation”. In his note for the original release Bill Nelson declared; “The music presented on these two albums marks the consolidation of several years of musical and philosophical practice. Almost every piece was conceived during moments of intense stillness or ‘magical vacuity’. Of all the music I have made, this is, perhaps, the most personal and yet the least demonstrative.”
“Chance Encounters in the Garden of Lights” has now become a highly regarded collection of beautifully evocative ambient music in the prolific discography of Bill Nelson. Long out of print, this Cocteau Discs re-mastered limited edition presents this wonderful double album once again, restoring the original artwork in the collection in a deluxe digipack set.
It also features 21 bonus tracks drawn from the 1988 CD edition and a rare limited edition EP included with the very first LP pressing of the double album.
