In the course of a career spanning seven decades, Tony Visconti has produced seminal albums in the classic rock genre including high profile collaborations with David Bowie, T. Rex, Gentle Giant, Strawbs, and Badfinger.  But Visconti's C.V. runs much deeper, from folk (Ralph McTell, Tom Paxton) to musical theatre (Elaine Paige) and everything in between (Sparks).  Edsel now releases the first large-scale tribute to Visconti's enormous musical legacy.  Produced by Tony Visconti has been curated by its subject.  It will be available in a variety of formats including 4 CDs, 6 LPs, and 2 LPs, with the 6LP edition including a signed print by Visconti.  The CD box boasts 77 tracks from the producer's distinguished career, while the LP box offers 73 and the highlights 2LP set has 30 songs. Phil Kinrade has mastered all audio at AIR Mastering with Visconti's approval.  The 4CD version has an 80-page booklet with an introduction by Visconti, track-by-track notes by Mark Paytress, artist tributes, and previously unpublished photographs.  The 6LP vinyl edition is strictly limited to 1,000 units, with each LP pressed on 140-gram vinyl and a 60-page booklet included.  Artwork for both formats was designed by the Barnbrook studio.
