The Outside Years

Spanning the years 1993 – 2004 this collection features remastered versions of the albums Living On the Outside and Poor Boy Blue, and also includes a further 35 additional tracks drawn from demos, studio out-takes and previously unreleased live recordings from Jim’s personal archive.

The album Living On the Outside was first released in 2001 and featured guest appearances by such notable musicians as George Harrison, Steve Winwood, Paul Weller, Ian Paice and Gary Moore. ‘Poor Boy Blue’ would be Jim’s final album and was issued in 2004.

Featured in this new boxed set are highlights of a solo acoustic performance in Philadelphia USA in June 1999, a wonderful concert recorded at the Music Hall, Cologne, Germany in 2002 and a selection of other live recordings. Among the demos is a recording of ‘Love’s Got a Hold On Me’ featuring George Harrison.

The Outside Years is a fine collection of the later music of Jim Capaldi and is a tribute to a much loved, much respected and greatly missed musician.
