Al Stewart - 1972 - Orange

Al Stewart is a Scottish singer-songwriter and folk-rock musician. Stewart came to stardom as part of the British folk revival in the 1960s and 1970s, and developed his own unique style of combining folk-rock songs with delicately woven tales of the great characters and events from history.He is best known for his hit 1976 single "Year of the Cat" from the platinum album Year of the Cat. Stewart released Orange in 1972. It was written after a tumultuous break-up with his girlfriend and muse, Mandi, and was very much a transitional album, combining songs in Stewart's confessional style with more intimations of the historical themes that he would increasingly adopt (e.g. "The News from Spain", with its prog-rock overtones, including dramatic piano by Rick Wakeman). Al Stewart - vocals, acoustic guitar, Tim Renwick - electric guitar, Spanish guitar, Cal Batchelor - Spanish guitar, Tim Walker - Spanish guitar, Brinsley Schwarz - 12-string acoustic guitar, Rick Wakeman - piano, organ, Bob Andrews - organ, Bruce Thomas, Brian Odgers - basses, John Wilson, Roger Pope, Graham Hunt - drums, John Donnelly, Mick Welton, Kevin Powers - backing vocals.
