Julian Taylor‘s Anthology Vol. 1 is the musical scrapbook of a journeyman. It takes you on a ride through the rock ‘n’ roll eras he’s navigated, from fronting bands like Staggered Crossing to his celebrated solo career. In this treasure chest of sound, you’ll find fifteen vintage tracks that capture the essence of bygone years.
But here’s the twist: Julian isn’t just looking back; he’s also peeking forward. He throws in three fresh tunes that serve as bridges, connecting the dots between his roots and the new directions he’s taken. These tracks are the sweet spot between his acclaimed albums, The Ridge and Beyond the Reservoir.
Among those is Long Time Ago, a gentle folk-rock gem, a melody born from collaboration with his friend, the artist Robert Priest. It whispers of enduring effects, those subtle forces that linger beneath the surface, quietly shaping our lives. Expressive vocals, effortless melody, and a great sing-along chorus…
