PETER HAMMILL The Charisma and Virgin Recordings 1971 - 1986 (2025 UK/EU super deluxe 18-CD and 2-Blu-ray box set. Peter Hammill first came to prominence as the founder and voice of the legendary progressive rock group Van der GraafGenerator, and has since built a formidable solo career as one of Britain's most original and uncompromising songwriters. Hammill's body of work spans pastoral folk, raw experimentalism, and intimate, emotionally charged balladry - alwaysfiercely distinctive. This definitive super deluxe box set brings together all 13 of Hammill's albums released on Charisma and Virgin, newly remastered from the original master tapes. It also includes new stereo and 5.1 mixes of The Future Now and pH7 by Stephen W Tayler, alongside a wealth of rare BBC sessions, live recordings, and unreleased television performances presented on Blu-ray. Includes an illustrated book featuring rare photos and a new essay from Hammill. This set celebrates Hammill's extraordinary output between 1971-1986, a period that cemented his reputation as one of progressive music's most daring innovators. Lavishly housed together in a linen textured slipcase. Sealed with hype-sticker).
