Pastpresent

Pastpresent is a greatest-hits anthology by Irish folk group Clannad, released in 1989. It is a collection of selected songs recorded by the band from 1982 up to 1989, including two new songs exclusive to this release – "The Hunter" and "World of Difference". Three singles were released to promote the anthology: "The Hunter", "In a Lifetime" and the band's only double A-side "Hourglass"/"Theme from Harry's Game". However, "Hourglass" does not appear on this anthology and was only available as a single until it was included on the 2-disc 1997 Netherlands anthology In a Lifetime: The Ultimate Collection and then again on the 2020 anthology In a Lifetime. A book of sheet music for all songs except "Stepping Stone" was also produced. The album cover includes a still image taken from the music video released for the single "The Hunter", as well as artwork from the Dutch artist M. C. Escher.
