Bill Nelson
Loom (Astroloops Volume Two)

Album UK 2015 on Astrotone label
Rock

Limited to 500 copies. From Dreamsville via Bill himself: "As those of you who bought the 'Loom' album know, the title track was missing from the album and a track from the 'Quiet Bells' album was used in its place by mistake. To remedy this, we've arranged for a completely free download for fans who bought the album, (and indeed, even for those who didn't,) of the missing track. So here is 'Loom,' which should have been track 18 on the original CD. Free for everyone and anyone to listen to and download. :)" From the Dreamsville webpage about this release: "Loom is an instrumental album issued in a one-off print run of 500 copies on the Astrotone label. The album was a follow up to the extremely limited CDR Astroloops (issued to purchasers of the Eastwood Astroluxe Custom Ltd. guitar). Nelson announced on the Dreamsville forum that he had commenced work on this album in September 2014 around the time that the Astroloops album had effectively been snapped up by pre-orders for the Astroluxe guitar. At this stage the album had a working title of Lustre and Illusion, although Crystal Springs was another possible title under consideration. The recordings were completed in October 2014, and with the addition of the final and eighteenth track, “Loom”, Nelson decided to make Loom the title of the album. Ironically though, when the album was at the mastering stage, there was a misunderstanding in selecting the tracks from Nelson’s DAT masters, and the title track “Loom” was mistakenly replaced by a track from Quiet Bells called “Chiming Shires”. In a rare lapse of quality control, Nelson had not played the reference disc in full before authorising the album’s release, and the mistake wasn’t picked up until after the album went on sale. As a result of this error, Nelson arranged for a free download of the missing track to be made available on Bandcamp. Loom (the album) went on sale on 7 December 2015, and after 7 days was taken off sale with the 10 remaining copies sold through email enquiries."
