The previously unheard poems include A Coat, The Mask, Paistin Finn, The Pilgrim, Freddie Stevenson's beautiful demo of Tread Softly (For You Tread On My Dreams), and Steve Wickham's delightful rendering of Come Gather Round Me, Parnellites. ![]() The demos also include a number of tracks that didn't make it to the finished show or album, but which form a greater picture of Yeats' poetry and its adaptability to music. They have their own magical sound and in many cases were recorded as I was writing the music, so they are super fresh with the imprint of the original inspiration. Mike writes: "The demos for the Mr Yeats stage show and album were recorded between 20 in Findhorn and Dublin, and I've always wanted to release them. CD and digital release date is Fri 17 June. A bonus disc and download of demos, containing additional Yeats poems set to song is available - individually or with the main album - from our online store when you order the reissue of AN APPOINTMENT WITH MR YEATS.
