Album artwork for A Paean To Wilson by The Durutti Column

A Paean to Wilson is still arguably Vini Reilly and the Durutti Column's most important and consistent piece of work since the demise of the original and seminal Factory Records in the early 1990s.

On the deluxe 3LP version the F4 "Heaven Sent" tracks released on vinyl for the first time. They first appeared in 2005 via Tony Wilson's project F4, as being the fourth version of Factory Records. Originally it was download-only release, Heaven Sent (It Was Called Digital, It Was Heaven Sent). A six-track CD of personal dedications by Vini ironically the last piece is titled "Anthony". Originally this was commissioned for the MIF (Manchester International Festival) where it was premiered in July 2009. Vin had already composed pieces for Tony to listen to whilst he was ill in hospital and it was from here that the project developed. Originally released in 2010.
