{"product_id":"rest-in-blue-vinyl","title":"Rest In Blue (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom 2006, Gerry started work on a new album on and off, but sadly passed away in 2011. His daughter, Martha Rafferty, sought to complete a project started by father, culminating in Rest In Blue. Many of the demos left by Gerry included multiple layers of synths, which Martha stripped back to showcase his immense vocal ability. The result is an album brimming with raw emotion, and a quintessential collection of blues, rock, and folk. Some of the demos date back as far as 1970, many of which Rafferty had singled out as potential tracks for his new album.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWith elements of the songs written at varying parts of Gerry’s career, the album tackles a variety of topics including, climate change on Sign Of The Times, questioning the legality of war in Lost Highway, and addressing problems with his alcoholism in the emotively honest Still In Denial. As well as many brand-new originals penned by Gerry, the album features popular traditional folk songs such as Wild Mountain Thyme and Dirty Old Town. It also features a cover of Richard and Linda Thompson’s It’s Just The Motion, an artist Gerry was a big admirer of. The album finishes with a re-record of the Stealers Wheel classic Stuck In The Middle With You recorded back in the 90s, that gives the track a fresh, country-inspired interpretation. Rest In Blue called upon many musicians that had worked closely with Gerry throughout his career.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease date: 3rd September, 2021\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStill In Denial\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFull Moon\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSign Of The Times\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eYou Are All I Want\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI Still Love You\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWild Mountain Thyme\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSlow Down\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt’s Just The Motion\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLook At Me Now\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDirty Old Town\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLost Highway\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKeeper Of My Soul\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePrecious Moments\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eStuck In The Middle With You\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gerry Rafferty","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42655880478979,"sku":"9029664030","price":90.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/1125\/products\/1_grande_74eef7af-a295-4193-8d43-fe2d0918a919.png?v=1649197656","url":"https:\/\/store.warnermusic.com.au\/ms\/products\/rest-in-blue-vinyl","provider":"Warner Music Australasia Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
