Description
One of Ireland's finest singer-songwriters' three albums for the Dawn label, dating from 1972, 1973 and 1974.
McWilliams had found international success with the song 'Days Of Pearly Spencer' on Major Minor Records in 1967. His new label Dawn gave him time to explore his creativity and musicality.
From the late 1970s, McWilliams withdrew from the spotlight, only occasionally recording and gigging locally.
Sadly, he died prematurely from a heart attack in 2002, at the young age of 56.
Digitally remastered and slipcased.
Extensive new notes by John O'Regan.
