Al Stewart – Past, Present And Future (Vinyl LP, 1974, Janus Records JLS 3063, Sterling Mastering)

Why This Record Matters
Past, Present And Future is built around Al Stewart’s historically focused songwriting, with subjects ranging from Warren Harding and prewar Europe to World War II and Nostradamus. “Roads To Moscow” and the nearly ten-minute “Nostradamus” became enduring parts of Stewart’s catalog. The sessions feature an extensive supporting cast including Rick Wakeman, Tim Renwick, Dave Swarbrick, B.J. Cole, Francis Monkman, and Roger Taylor.
