Bill Bruford – The Best Of Bill Bruford: The Winterfold & Summerfold Years (3CD Box Set) (2024)
Bill Bruford is the original drummer in YES and was a long term member of King Crimson before devoting his career to jazz.
• ‘THE BEST of BILL BRUFORD: The Winterfold & Summerfold Years’ is a 35-track, 3CD box set re-issue of two long out of print albums that together cull the best of drummer- composer-bandleader Bruford’s recordings for the two labels.
The package has been entirely re-designed by Bruford’s long-standing associate designer- photographer Dave McKean, for release on Summerfold records. The production was overseen personally by Bill Bruford.
The compilation is the ideal beginner’s guide for those who may know Bill’s name but are as yet unfamiliar with the breadth and depth of his recorded catalogue.
