The Jewel by Bill Nelson

This digital download is released simultaneously with the sold-out physical CD that was available to pre-order from Burning Shed...

'The Jewel' is just one of many previously unreleased albums that have been sitting in my archives for several years. Recorded in 2016 it is an instrumental work, an album of abstract, impressionistic guitarscapes and the occasional ambient jazz excursion, an album that will, hopefully, reveal more of its secrets with extended listening.
- Bill Nelson, March 2020.

This download comes complete with PDF artwork files.
