Notes: (****) Made over 6 years, Kilty Town is a delightful world music/progressive folk album from Daniel Engle and well-known Yes/Wakeman fan Nic Caciappo, with an international cast, including Wakeman (UK), MM Murphey (US), wife and husband team Lien/Rasch (Norway), McAuley and McDonagh (Ireland), and Hasan (Indonesia). Released at the beginning of 2019, with a short CD run before a digital release, the album was produced and mixed by another well-known Yes fan, Tim Morse (author of "Yes Stories"). Wakeman appears on "September Waltz" (dedicated to the victims of September 11) and "Never Ending Journey". Wakeman described the tracks as the most unusual he had ever played on. (HP, 16 Jan 19)
