More Info:

Double vinyl LP pressing. 39-track collection of every A- and B-side from Edmunds' years on Swan Song Records. Featuring material written by and with Nick Lowe, Elvis Costello, Bob Seger, John Fogerty, Chuck Berry, Graham Parker, Huey Lewis, Rodgers & Hart, and more. After hitting the charts in 1968, Dave Edmunds began a spectacular career as a writer, performer, and producer. Signing with Swan Song Records, all of the pieces of the puzzle would fit into place. Beginning with "Here Comes The Weekend" (co-written with Nick Lowe), Dave began a stellar run on the charts, showcasing his propensity for, and ability to bring a "classic" sound back to the airwaves, and to remember where all of those sounds came from. Swan Songs: The Singles 1976-1981 reveals the magic of the 7" singe in a way that has yet to be explored. 39 tracks, covering every A- and B-side from that period, guide the listener through that pivotal time when listeners heard what they liked and liked what they heard. Swan Songs: The Singles 1976-1981 is truly the definitive look at Dave Edmunds: the artist-whether with his incredible guitar tone, his signature production style, or his ability to make every song distinctive, and truly his own. Take the (swan) dive.
