Sunwheel Dance
Street Date: June 28, 2005
Sunwheel Dance, Bruce Cockburn's third album, originally released in
1971, weaves together influences as diverse as Renaissance music and
Piedmont blues, including the first of many of Bruce's political
songs, "It's Going Down Slow," and the seminal recording of Bruce's
influential finger-picking style on the title track. Now remastered
with two bonus tracks, Sunwheel Dance shows a major artist
stretching his boundaries, spiritually searching and maturing before
our eyes.

Circles in the Stream
Street Date: June 28, 2005
Recorded live in Toronto in the spring of 1977, Circles in the
Stream captures Bruce Cockburn at the peak of his creative powers
with a band capable of reaching the highest heights and ready to
follow him anywhere. Including all 17 original tracks, newly
remastered with new notes by Canadian music authority Nicholas
Jennings, Circles in the Stream is both a brilliant live recording
and one of the best in the entire Cockburn catalogue.

Big Circumstance
Street Date: June 28, 2005
The result of three years of global traveling, 1989's Big
Circumstance reflects Bruce Cockburn's heartfelt reactions to war,
repression and environmental abuse. On this album Cockburn fires off
some of the most politically potent material of his career,
including "If A Tree Falls," which tackled the issue of rain forest
destruction. This remastered version of Big Circumstance features a
bonus track, an acoustic version of "If A Tree Falls." Sharpened
rather than dulled by the passage of time, Big Circumstance remains
a powerful testament to one man's social conscience and artistic
vision.
