Description

The incredible new album featuring 3 new recordings, 2 new remixes, and other tracks chosen by Johnnbspas he revisits the very best of his career with the Moody Blues and his solo work.For this album Lodge went back into the studio to totally recreate ldquoStreet Cafeacuterdquo, ldquoEvening Time to Get Awayrdquo and ldquoLegend of a Mindrdquo,nbspwith the wonderful musicians of the 10,000 Light Years Band. nbspThe tracks were coproduced by John and Alan Hewitt, and features John on his original Fender Precision Bass which he recorded all of the classic Moody Blues songs on. nbspHe is joined by Hewitt on Keyboards,nbspDuffy King on guitars, Billy Ashbaugh on drums and Jason Charboneau on Cello. The result is a fresh modern feel whilst still retaining the original magic of these songs. Legend of a Mind was particularly important for John to include on this album as it is his tribute to his friend Ray Thomas.The original 24 track recordings of ldquoSay You Love Merdquo, and ldquoSummer Breeze, Summer Songrdquo, were also remixed and remastered to create a 2019 feel to these songs that were so much part of Johnrsquos first solo ventures.With this album I want to share with you my deep cuts, songs that I have wanted to revisit, and songs which have become an important part of my life. It is this which has taken me back into the studio, to share with you my music and record again with my Fender Precision Bass.I hope you too can join me on this journeyhellip B Yond.nbspJOHN LODGE 2019 John Lodge Heavyweight-LP is available for home delivery from Vinyl Records London, only £25
