Cover for the LP release of The Last of England by Gordon Giltrap and Paul Ward released on Psychotron Records. Cover painting by Ford Madox Brown

GORDON GILTRAP & PAUL WARD “The Last of England”

A vinyl limited edition release of this wonderful collection of tunes from the legendary guitar player, Gordon Giltrap. Gordon collaborated with Paul Ward, keyboard player and music producer to create this album partly inspired by the artwork from the pre-Raphaelite era. The title track also comes from the famous Paul Maddox Brown painting used on the cover. Gordon embarked on this project to celebrate his return to health after a major operation in 2016 and considers it as perhaps his best album yet.

Previously released on CD (Angel Air) in January 2017, the album has received great reviews already. Losing a couple of tracks to translate onto vinyl was a difficult decision, but it is more than compensated for hearing the sound on vinyl pressing and owning a beautiful LP which shows off the painting that inspired some of the music in a semi laminated luxury gatefold sleeve.

Comes on gorgeous deep orange vinyl; first 100 copies with a signed poster (NOW SOLD OUT). 150 copies with unsigned poster and 250 standard copies.
