Dwight Twilley's second solo album had a protracted birth. Recording sessions began in 1978 for an album to be titled 'Blueprint' and planned for release through Arista Records. Complex legal entanglements slowed progress until a different label, EMI America at last released the retitled album, 'Scuba Divers' in the summer of 1982. Yet Dwight never stopped writing and cutting throughout the enforced interval since his 1979 solo debut, 'Twilley'. Along the path, dozens of his very best songs and performances came in and out of consideration as numerous album sequences were compiled then recompiled. Now, 25 essential songs from years of studio work paint a fuller picture of Dwight Twilley at a peak of creativity. Rough bootlegs of the first iteration of 'Blueprint' have been breathlessly traded by fans throughout the decades, as Dwight Twilley's unreleased album took on a legendary status. But 'Scuba Divers (Blueprint Edition)' goes way beyond by presenting additional songs that have never circulated, along with the best of the previously bootlegged material in original master-sourced sound.
