Sky 3

Digitally remastered and expanded two disc (CD + NTSC/Region 0 DVD) edition of this album by the legendary classical rock band. Formed in 1979, Sky brought together the worlds of rock and classical music in a highly successful and inspiring way. Featuring the gifted talents of guitarist John Williams, percussionist Tristan Fry, legendary bass player Herbie Flowers, former Curved Air keyboard player Francis Monkman and guitarist Kevin Peek, Sky recorded their debut album at Abbey Road studios in the early months of 1979. For this, the band's third album, Steve Gray replaced Francis Monkman on keyboards, but the band continued their run of success as SKY 3 reached the UK top ten upon it's release in March 1981. The album's success followed a highly memorable concert by the band at Westminster Abbey in London on February 24th 1981, which was recorded and broadcast by BBC Television and later released on home video cassette. This Esoteric Recordings edition has been newly remastered and includes a companion DVD (NTSC / Region Free) of SKY AT WESTMINSTER ABBEY, (the first ever DVD release of this classic concert). The original album artwork is fully restored and the booklet features a new essay.
