About

Yellow Hedgerow Dreamscape is a compilation album by British progressive rock band Porcupine Tree (at that time a pseudonym for private solo projects by Steven Wilson but later a fully fledged band in its own right). It is a combination of early archive material from 1984 to 1991. The tracks gathered in Yellow Hedgerow Dreamscape are the ones not made available in the first "official" release of Porcupine Tree, "On the Sunday of Life...". The album was first released in 1994 as a limited edition CD of 2500 copies. (Counterfeits of this CD are in circulation, so buyers are warned to take extra care before paying high prices.) In 2000, Gates of Dawn re-released the album as a double LP edition pressed on yellow vinyl, limited to 1000 copies, and on black vinyl up to 150 copies. 300 extra copies were pressed on green vinyl in 2005. The vinyl version substitutes the cover version of Prince's song "The Cross", included in the original track listing, with the song "Out", from the Love, Death & Mussolini cassette. In May 2013, a reissue of Yellow Hedgerow Dreamscape became available to purchase exclusively through the Headphone Dust online store. The 2013 CD release stays with the revised 1999 vinyl track listing and is repackaged in a 6 panel digipak with new artwork and design, including a booklet with sleeve notes and information about the original cassette releases. The original cassettes are "Tarquin's Seaweed Farm" (1989, 80 minutes) and "The Nostalgia Factory" (1990, 70 minutes). Both were available as a private pressing with booklet (approximately 100 copies each), later reissued in 1991 by Delerium Records as a limited edition of 300 copies each.
