Lightdark

Product Information

With members living in the USA, Italy, Austria and Sweden the only way was to use the magic of the ’net’ sending files and start building, what now became, a double album of 21 songs.

All the drums have been re recorded by new drummer Jan Vincent Velazco, and the whole album has been remixed by Karl Groom and Nick Barrett.And a completely unobtrusive vocalist, who withholds his talents in favor of the song , which in my book, adds up points). Heavy mellotron use beginning at the 2:40 mark, joined by two soloing guitars at the 4:20 mark--one a "clean" jazzy guitar, the other holding and bending sustained notes with the twang bar.

Still on the 1980s pop trail, John also asked Nik Kershaw to contribute a guitar solo for the track ‘Humans Being’, as he’s long been a fan of his style. The album's last great song, "Cold Afterall" begins with the sound of rainfall behind which the female voice of a public address system in a train station (or airport) sound. Heather is usually known for her folk style of singing but for this song, I gave her the brief of taking a more Kate Bush approach - breathy and emotive. This imminent re-release (and expanded edition) of 2008's LightDark will hopefully lead to greater exposure and appreciation for Giancarlo's work. A brief backward guitar solo plays before guest vocalist TIM BOWNESS (NO-MAN) enters to give an absolutely gorgeous vocal performance--the perfect match to the background music.I bought a 2013 re-issue version with 3 interesting bonus tracks, separated from the main 7 songs by a silent gap. Condition - This item is in Excellent condition or better (unless it says otherwise in the above description).
