Gordon Giltrap - Live At Oxford (1981)

Digitally re-mastered edition of this 1979 live album from the British Folk/Prog guitarist. For over 40 years Gordon has enjoyed the well-deserved reputation as one of Britain's greatest guitar players. He made his first recordings in the 1960 's as folk artist, but by 1976 he had crossed into the Progressive Rock genre and signed to the newly formed Electric Records imprint. Live at Oxford was recorded by the RAK Mobile Studio at Oxford Polytechnic in March 1979, and the album captured Gordon Giltrap and his band in fine form. Joining Gordon on acoustic and electric guitars was a line-up of John Gustafson (bass), Rod Edwards (keyboards), Shirlie Roden (keyboards, percussion, vocals) and Ian Mosley (drums). This Esoteric Recordings edition is newly re-mastered from the original tapes and also features a lavishly illustrated booklet with new essay and interview with Gordon Giltrap.
