Search - Blue Nile :: A Walk Across the Rooftops

Digitally remastered and expanded two CD edition of the Scottish trio's debut album including a bonus disc containing seven additional tracks. A Walk Across the Rooftops was originally released in 1984 on Linn Records, a label set up specifically to release the album. Linn Electronics of Glasgow wanted a recording to demonstrate 'the fidelity and versatility' of a recording console they had developed. Having heard a demo of 'Tinseltown In The Rain' while visiting Castlesound Studios, they approached the band to fund the recording of a full album, and formed a record label to release it. The rest as they say is history: a critically acclaimed album which led to high expectations for their second album.
