John Wetton Box Set Coming In November – No Treble

The late, great John Wetton was a powerhouse of a musician. During his career of over 40 years, he was a member of some of the most influential bands of his time: Family, King Crimson, Uriah Heep, Wishbone Ash, Roxy Music, UK, Asia, and Icon. He was also a session player for Bryan Ferry, Steve Hackett, Brian Eno, and many more.

His legacy is being celebrated in a new collection of three box sets called Concentus: The John Wetton Live Collection. The project has just announced volume one, which will be coming out on November 15th. It will feature 10 CDs remastered by Andy Pearce.

“Also included is a selection of bonus material, including rare and hard-to-find cuts. The collection is presented in a compact box and comes with new and extensive sleeve notes from Prog Magazine editor, Jerry Ewing,” a press release explains. “The collection has been specially curated by Rick Nelson, Wetton archivist and John’s close friend. Packaging and artwork has been designed by John’s long-time collaborator Michael Inns. The entire project releases with the blessing of John’s wife, Lisa and son, Dylan and has the full support of the Wetton Estate.”

Concentus: The John Wetton Live Collection, Volume I, will be out on November 15th. It’s available for pre-order through the Cherry Red Records website.
