Description
RE-PRESS: CD ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 2017 .
• The proverbial musical chameleon, Duncan Browne recorded the post-psych chamber pop classic Give Me, Take You album in 1968 before re-emerging four years later with the introspective singer/songwriter hit single 'Journey'.
• By the mid-1970s, he had signed to the Transatlantic label as a member of Euro art rock sophisticates Metro, a trio whose calling card, 'Criminal World', was covered by David Bowie on his 1983 album Let's Dance, which went on to sell over ten million copies.
• Leaving Metro after their debut album, Duncan resumed his solo career, recording two highly-regarded late 1970s albums for Transatlantic (by now re-branded Logo), with The Wild Places and its title track single both reaching the Top Ten in one or two European territories.
• This anthology covers his time with Transatlantic/Logo, both with Metro and as a solo performer. It includes the long-lost late 1979 recording 'China Girl' (no relation to the Bowie/Iggy Pop song), which now gains its first-ever release in any format.
