Witness

Sometimes I stride like royalty while other times I crawl...account celebrating the seminal Wigan band, Witness.

One of my favourite musicians of all time @GerardStarkie
and his old compadre Ray Chan. Goosebumps for me this one.

Out today in 2001, Witness’ outstanding Under A Sun, one of my favorite under-recognized LPs of the decade. ‘Warning Song’ rules. https://t.co/f80gCgvJZ6

@timatcoalition Much appreciated, Tim x

Happy 25th birthday to Before the Calm by Witness. The greatest debut album ever.

A record that has guided me through many dark nights.

@dylanharris @GerardStarkie @timatcoalition Keep plugging away, Dylan. 🤞

Happy 25th birthday to the utterly magnificent debut album, Before The Calm by @WitnessHeirloom. What a majestic record this is from @GerardStarkie and the lads. Sounding as fresh as ever. Dare I suggest some shows later this year to celebrate? @dylanharris @timatcoalition

[Witness @WitnessHeirloom]

@timatcoalition Absolute masterpiece. Aged like a fine wine. Any idea why it's not on streaming platforms? Lack of a vinyl release is still troubling for me.

[Jeremy P. Goldstein @jeremypopscene]

One of the most immense tracks of the 1990s dropped today in May 8, so full of brooding menace, it remains breathtaking almost 30 years later: Puressence’s skyscraping ‘I Suppose’. Bring on the 29 June Manchester gig! https://t.co/zoBX8zwV9Y

[Gerard Starkie @GerardStarkie]

Looking forward to this. St Mary’s Creative Space Chester. 12th May

[Witness @WitnessHeirloom]

@GerardStarkie Was it filmed near the studio? Who's the kid in the video, Gerard?

[Gerard Starkie @GerardStarkie]

I hadn’t seen this in about 25 years. Still got that jazzmaster.

Gerard Starkie: Flood Myths - single review / video premiere https://t.co/HJ6rKCIghc via @louderthanwar Gerard Starkie - great new song about 'having both a sense of purpose and a sense of complete insignificance at the same time'

[Jeremy P. Goldstein @jeremypopscene]

Finally, also released March 1, 1999: Witness’ gorgeous ’Scars’. https://t.co/Sh140OgKQn

@14Admirals Hopefully you'll be able to add a couple of vinyl albums one day 🤞

[Witness @WitnessHeirloom]

Picked this up on discogs. Don't recall seeing it before. Anyone else pick this freebie up at HMV? What 3 tracks would you have chosen to persuade new listeners?
