Dublin, Ireland - Stocktons Wing Live - Take One was without doubt the group's bestselling album capturing their eclectic live sound. Throughout the Eighties Stockton's Wing were labelled Pop, Rock, Folk, Trad, Celtic Fusion (and a lot worse) by different publications, but the tens of thousands who attended the almost 1500 performances across Ireland, the UK and America, Stockton's Wing just meant good music and a great night out. 'Stockton's Wing Live - Take One' captures that feeling.

Produced by their good friend Bill Whelan, who later achieved major success with Riverdance, 'Stockton's Wing Live - Take One' will without doubt bring back many memories of their youth, to many now forty something's. The album, which has been digitally remastered for this release, also includes 3 bonus studio recordings of the band from the same period.

This album includes the definitive versions of some of the group's best-known and best-loved tracks including; Beautiful Affair -Skidoo - Walk Away - The Mason's Apron - and a very special version (with audience participation) of Silent Dreams.
