Geraint Watkins - Dial ‘W’ For Watkins 2CD

RELEASES ON THE 20/11/26

Geraint’s much-celebrated 2004 album "Dial ‘W’ for Watkins" has a 2CD reissue with a bonus disc of outtakes, Chicken or the Egg.

From this album Bob Dylan played both Only a Rose and Go West on his Theme Time Radio Show; and Heaven featured on the preacher family satire The Righteous Gemstones.

When researching the outtakes, Geraint found a full band version of Bring Me the Head of My So-Called Lover recorded at RAK Studios. It precedes the album as a digital single. Many have heard Geraint without knowing it. Following his 1979 album Geraint Watkins and the Dominators he became the go-to rock’n’roll guy; backing Shakin’ Stevens, Dave Edmunds, Rory Gallagher and more.

These led him to play with legends like Van Morrison, Paul McCartney, Mark Knopfler, Bill Wyman’s Rhythm Kings, Nick Lowe, Eric Clapton, Status Quo, Roger Daltrey amongst others. He’s released five solo albums and been covered a number of times.
