Originally released: 31st May 1994 Produced by Anthony Phillips Cover design by Meriel Waissman Cover photography by Dirk Smorgasbord -------------- Sail The World is a collection of Ant's music written and recorded for the UK TV coverage of the Whitbread Around The World Yacht Race, which was broadcast by ITV between September 1993 and June 1994. The original 1994 release of the album included the mixes of the tracks made for use on the television programmes. In 1996 Ant and Trevor Vallis remixed a number of the tracks for release on a library music album called Sport & Leisure. The 2010 re-issue of the album was re-mastered by Simon Heyworth to include several of the remixed versions along with three extra tracks, the CD also gaining new artwork seen here as well as liner notes. The 2025 Expanded and Re-mastered edition has the same track listing as the 2010 edition with the 1996 remixed versions of the relevant tracks. It also includes an extra CD which includes rare and previously unreleased tracks as well as new liner notes.
