Bill Nelson
Whistling While The World Turns
Album UK 2000 on Lenin Imports label
Electronic and Rock (New Wave, Art Rock)
From Bill's Dreamsville website: "A new millennium, a new record deal, this time with Lenin Imports, a London based independent label. Whistling While the World Turns is a collection of previously unreleased tracks from Nelson’s archive, and covers a range of styles mixing instrumental and vocal pieces. The album was intended as a taster for the 6CD box set Noise Candy, the most elaborate Nelson release of his career (up to that point), but delays to the box set would lessen its impact somewhat. Whistling While the World Turns is really more of a companion release to Noise Candy, since 11 of the 18 tracks are actually exclusive to this release. The album would remain on catalogue for over 3 years, and having gone out of print, was soon fetching high prices on Amazon and eBay (on the occasions that copies turned up)." Pre-order copies were signed by Bill. All songs composed, performed and recorded by Bill Nelson at various intervals between 1990 and 1998. All these tracks, which have previously been unreleased, were created entirely by hand at home. No computers were used in the making of this music. Album mastered at Fairview Music, Willerby, Hull, UK. Eternal gratitude to Richard Chadwick at Opium (Arts) Ltd. for his continued support. Much love to Emiko, Elle, Elliot and Julia Nelson.
