Released to critical acclaim on Cherry Red back in September 1982, Tracey039s debut solo album is full of engaging, melodic tunes and heartfelt lyrics delivered with her distinctive warm vocals. Recorded for just 138 in a studio in a garden shed when she was a 19yearold firstyear student at Hull University, it is an astonishing demonstration of Tracey039s songwriting talent, stripped down to vocal and semiacoustic guitar.The LP was released during a fertile period in her early career, when she was also playing with the group The Marine Girls and just about to embark on a lifelong musical and personal partnership with Ben Watt in Everything But The Girl. Its stark minimalism made it stand out from the crowd, and the album remained on the Independent chart for many months. To this day, A Distant Shore remains one of our proudest achievements here at Cherry Red Records.Fully supported by the artist, 039A Distant Shore039 is now being re presented with the addition of five hitherto unheard demo recordings, handpicked by Tracey from her archive of cassettes. Lucky Day was recorded during the same session as the album but somehow never made the grade the other four tracks here were recorded during a later session but then set aside, to be rerecorded a while later with EBTG for their first album, Eden. Freshly mastered at Abbey Road Studios with new sleevenotes written by Tracey, this 2024 edition is available on both vinyl and CD, a beautifully presented reminder of the albums elemental beauty..
