You can say: Take a trip to the dark side of the moon, light a candle, take a joint, like way back then and enjoy the world of Pink Floyd again.
This is what the performing artists on the albums “The Everlasting Songs Vol. 1 & 2” probably thought and/or did when they recorded these extraordinary interpretations of Pink Floyd classics.
The protagonists of this album, all members of rock heroes like Jethro Tull, King Crimson, Yes, Asia, Deep Purple, Doors, Gentle Giant, Frank Zappa, Chicago, Hawkwind and others indeed had lots of fun to record these songs in new renditions.
After the very successful album “ The Everlasting Songs Vol. 1”, which entered the german compilation sales charts on rank 29 in February 2015, the creme de la creme of the progressive music genre again honors the work of Pink Floyd with much blood, sweat and tears. You can hear that in every song on this album.
This is the Volume 2 featuring:
Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull), Tony Levin, Adrian Belew (King Crimson), Gary Green (Gentle Giant), Robby Krieger (The Doors), John Wetton, Geoff Downes (Asia), Colin Moulding (XTC), Peter Banks, Tony Kaye, Steve Howe, Billy Sherwood, Chris Squire, Alan White (Yes), Glen Hughes, Steve Morse (Deep Purple), Tony Franklin (The Firm), Aynsley Dunbar (Frank Zappa), Jason Scheff (Chicago), Nik Turner (Hawkwind) and others.
