My first piano solo album.

If you are a fan of Dire Straits or have read the recently released book about the band by bassist John Illsley, you know the impact keyboardist Alan Clark had on the band’s arrangements. Backstory features fresh arrangements of Dire Straits songs that Clark originally played on. Utilizing just his piano, Clark is able to conjure new magic around “Romeo and Juliet” and “Love Over Gold,” as well as Bob Dylan’s “I and I.” A noted composer and producer in his own right, Clark reminds us of the impact he has had on the rock and pop world over the years, and for that, we thank him”.
