“Often placed near Nick Drake and John Martyn, Steve Tilston was always his own man: earthier, sharper, politically awake and rhythmically self-possessed. The lost Lennon letter, which eventually helped inspire ‘Danny Collins’, is the headline for casual observers, but the records tell the better story: supple guitar, traditional roots, jazz colour, melodic nerve and a craftsman who stayed stubbornly, beautifully Tilston.”
So summarises Klemen Breznikar at It’s Psychedelic Baby where Steve goes over his career as Singsong Music reissues his back catalogue with some standout releases dating back to the ’70s.
Find out more about Steve’s critically-acclaimed recordings as he picks his way through the past to the present, admitting his laudable remit always “staying true to his muse.”
