Miles Hunt - Custodian, The [CD]

The Custodian is a double CD of thirty acoustic songs from
The Wonder Stuff's Miles Hunt written over the last four decades. The album includes hits and rarities from his extensive back catalogue including 'The Size Of A Cow' and 'Caught In My Shadow.'

There are five different colour sleeves available.

Hunt says that the idea of becoming The Custodian came from a conversation with one of his musical heroes.

'I was in New York a few years back and was invited to guest at a Tom Robinson solo show. Tom has long been an inspiration to me and given the opportunity to perform with him... well, lets just say I couldn't polish my boots quick enough. During our brief rehearsal together on the afternoon of the show Tom asked me who I felt now owned the songs that I have written over all these years. I answered that whoever the publishing company I signed with probably did, but ultimately, I did. Tom was quick to correct me pointing out that all of my songs now belonged to my audience. Going on to explain that the songs I have written have been part of the sound track to thousands of people's live and it is those people that now truly own them. He said that my position was now of The Custodian, the person who's job it is to see that the songs are treated and performed with the respect the audiences deserve. It was an incredibly important thing to have said to me and something I have not and will not ever forget.'
