Another cracker of a track featuring the Nick Beggs' Chapman Stick, Mel Collins and Neil Taylor's superb guitar solo.

When Rob told me someone was doing some computer animations to go with this I wasn't sure what to expect...but I think they work really well.

Not too much longer to wait now, we are just into the beginning of the additional 10-day manufacturing delay...get your order in at //http://www.kompendium-web.com

Now it can be said!!

Rob has now revealed that the lustrous Andy Edwards has recorded all the drum parts for the next Magenta album.  :D

Rob says: "His playing on the album is frightening, it is absolutely frightening...he hasn't played on a record for quite a long time...he was like a kid in a candy shop, we were both smiling non-stop, he could do whatever he wanted on there...we spent three days in Rockfield recording the drums and it's just magical playing...it just transforms the tracks and it sounds absolutely stunning...it's so over the top in parts. He had a great time, he's a great player."

Other Bands / Galahad : Beyond The Realms Of Euphoria
October 14, 2012, 10:38:58 AM
Got this at Summer's End...

I thought I'd start a thread to complement the Battle Scars one.
I'm not sure what to make of it yet, it has Vitamin-P artwork again which is always good.
I need to listen to it properly (I always buy a heap of stuff at SE and not everything can get a listen straight-away...I'll be back. :)

Saturday October 13th - The Wesley Centre, Maltby.
What a marvellous, if slightly odd, experience that was.
The "marvellous" was every single thing that happened on that stage - all four artistes were inspiring with their talent and utterly entertaining with their joy of performance and the inter-piece banter was top-notch too with much laughter throughout.
The "slightly odd" was down to a number of small factors that were out of character with a "traditional" CRS gig...
Doors opened early...5 or 6 minutes...but still...
Seated gig...with tables too...
Only very, very slight talking in the audience at one or two points...
We were stunned, right at the end, when Lambsie declared the winning raffle numbers....this was the first and only clue we had that there was a raffle at all that night...
But, besides all the weirdness, this was an excellent evening of fine music brilliantly played by four extremely likeable and talented guys. It won't win gig of the year...but it should win something...
There will be some video of the Fry Brothers, I grabbed some bits of Gordon and Oliver ("ManTrap"?) too but I'm not sure about the postability of their stuff...copyright and so on.
Full marks everyone, a great night.

Another treat in the build-up to the release of the album.

The full video for the track "Mercy Of The Sea", featuring the incredible voice of Steve Balsamo and a brilliant guitar solo from former It Bites front-man Francis Dunnery.

Other Bands / Summer's End 2012 In 10 Minutes (Video)
October 07, 2012, 09:37:45 PM
I just posted my usual attempt to condense the brilliance of the three day festival into just 10 minutes.
As usual I didn't film it all and the quality is reasonable, if low budget. I just grabbed a whole bunch of random clips over the weekend and then worked though them all, looking for the bits that hopefully give a taste of the event for those who weren't there and a reminder for those who were.
Enjoy!  :D
