steven wilson - the birthday party (ghost story)

We offer no apologies for running the succession of posts on the Steven Wilson tour and the sensational new album. With featured soloist Theo Travis sending the latest tour updates we consider it a duty to pass the tales on. The album is currently charting in the UK and No.3 in the Germany, and for the many that have doubted progressive rock has a future in the present times this band is reversing that opinion.
Here's 'The Birthday Party', a ghost story, taken from the deluxe book edition of 'The Raven That Refused to Sing (and other stories)', accompanied by the instrumental version of 'The Watchmaker'.
The 6 tracks on the album are all based on stories of the supernatural, and the deluxe 4 disc edition comes in the form of a 128 page hardback book containing lyrics and ghost stories illustrated by Hajo Mueller.
