Track listings
1984 was a radical departure from the more pastoral feel of
Anthony's previous solo work, and saw him experiment with
synthesisers to an extent he'd previously never done before,
resulting in a keyboard dominated album.
At the time of release, the album divided opinions among some
Anthony Phillips fans, but the passage of time has seen the
album re-evaluated and it is now held in high esteem by fans,
critics and musicians (including Steven Wilson), all of whom
concur that 1984 now stands as a ground-breaking and
influential work.
This new 3 disc digipack deluxe edition of the album features a
new stereo mix and a 5.1 Surround sound mix, (on an NSTC /
Region Free DVD), along with a CD of alternate mixes and
out-takes. It includes a lavishly illustrated booklet that fully
restores the original album artwork and features a new essay by
Jon Dann (with a brief foreword text by Steven Wilson) and also
includes a poster.
The deluxe edition of 1984 is released on 24th June 2016 and is
available to order now from
Cherry Red and
Amazon.
