Bill Bruford - The Winterfold Collection 1978-1986 (2009)

2009 release, a collection of thirteen of the best tracks from across six Winterfold albums including material drawn from the albums Feels Good To Me (1978), One Of A Kind (1979), Gradually Going Tornado (1980) and more. Still on the electric Rock side of a transition to acoustic Jazz, the Winterfold Collection acts as an excellent introduction to the first half of the exciting career of one of the most influential drummers of the last four decades. Bill Bruford's name is synonymous with state-of-the-art drumming and percussion, and is famously associated with several of the greatest progressive rock groups of all time: Yes, King Crimson, Genesis, and UK. But it is as a solo artist and leader that he really had room to stretch and develop as an all-rounder. Voiceprint.
