A slim-line 2CD digipac reissuing two of Christine Collister‘s finest solo albums – Blue Aconite – was recorded in 1996 and features an extraordinary selection of songs interpreted by British folk-rock’s first lady of soul. Songs from Anna McGarrigle, Lal Waterson, Gillian Welch, Richard Thompson and Christine Collister. 1998’s The Dark Gift Of Time is a truly remarkable album, extending the template with songs from Elvis Costello, Bruce Cockburn, Tom Waits, Robert Wyatt and Nick Drake. Guest musicians include Richard Thompson, John Surman, Danny Thompson, Jacqui McShee and B J Cole.
