Description:

With hits such as Baker Street, Right Down The Line and Night Owl, Gerry Rafferty is one of Scotlandâ??s and the UKâ??s finest songwriters and musicians. After sadly passing away in 2011, his daughter Martha Rafferty sought to complete a number of tracks left unfinished and earmarked by Gerry for a new album. Enlisting the help of Mark Knopfler and Alan Clark of Dire Straits, this vision was realised in the form of Rest In Blue; the new posthumous studio album from Gerry Rafferty, featuring artwork from long-time collaborator John Byrne. The album is a culmination of tracks recorded at varying parts of Gerryâ??s career, including a number of new originals such as Nothing Personal, which dates back to the 70s, Lost Highway and Youâ??re All I Want. It also features covers of traditional classics such as Wild Mountain Thyme and Precious Memories. Rest In Blue is a quintessential Gerry Rafferty album, featuring a blend of rock and folk which celebrates the sheer magnificence of Gerry Rafferty as both a musician and a songwriter. -

The album called upon many musicians that had worked closely with Gerry throughout his career. One of which is guitarist Hugh Burns, who played on a vast amount of Rafferty's catalogue, including the powerful guitar solo on 'Baker Street'. Renowned vocalist Katie Kissoon performed backing vocals on many of the tracks, Alan Clark, formerly of Dire Straits, on piano and the Hammond organ, alongside many other incredible musicians. Whilst the album features many long-time collaborators, it also features bright, upcoming talent in the form of producer Tambala, who co-produced and mixed the track 'Slow Down'.
