For those you haven't heard of him do yourself a favour and start by listening to his Four Songs E.P.
A great singer songwriter.

3CD/2DVD release of Jethro Tull’s “Heavy Horses” remixed by Steven Wilson together with what looks like an extended version of their live “Bursting Out” album (i.e. a live concert from Berne, Switzerland on 28th May 1978) mixed by Jakko Jakszyk.
DVDs include Hi-Res stereo and 5.1 DTS/DD versions of both albums.
Ordered mine. Been pretty impressed with everything Steve Wilson has done to date but might be just reaching my threshold in terms of the back catalogue. Perhaps Stormwatch but surely no further.
Heavy Horses was the first album I bought, and I think I wore it smooth. My brother and I shared pocket money for Abba Greatest Hits so that does not count.
Read an interesting article in The Absolute Sound, January 2018, issue 279, regarding the recording of a soon-to-be-released Reference Recordings (label) of all-Rachmaninov program including the Trio No. 2 in D Minor (attn: Doug, aka Florestan). I was at amazon and the Reference Recordings site (they do downloads) and don't see it available yet.
