Privateer is the second album by British guitarist Tim Renwick, only available on Audio License, released in 2007 as the follow-up to his 1980s Tim Renwick album.
A collection of instrumental folk/jazz/rock pieces, it features all instruments played by Renwick himself, with various guest musicians.The songs were written over the span of multiple years.[1]
Speaking on the albums contents, Renwick said: "With these tunes I was given a free rein to do what I wanted and it occurred to me that they sounded like a band. I asked permission to repackage some of them into album form. The tracks have been, where necessary, edited, overdubbed and compiled to make them more easily listenable and then remastered. So this CD was actually an accident, but I hope, a happy one!"[1]
