STRAWBS A Glimpse of Heaven: Radio & TV Sessions 1966 - 1984 / 5 CDs + 1 Blu-Ray Disc)

Popis:

• Oficiálna sada 5CD a Blu-ray video boxov so všetkými dochovanými britskými rozhlasovými a televíznymi vystúpeniami legendárnej skupiny Strawbs medzi rokmi 1966 a 1984.

Korene skupiny Strawbs siahajú do roku 1963, keď Dave Cousins ​​a Tony Hooper založili bluegrassové duo The Strawberry Hill Boys. Prvý album Strawbs vyšiel v máji 1969 a kapela sa vydala na skvelú kariéru, ktorá priniesla sériu klasických albumov. Dave Cousins ​​bol vizionársky, nadaný hudobník a skladateľ na čele mnohých zostáv kapely, v ktorej v rôznych obdobiach vystupovali takí významní členovia ako Ron Chesterman, Tony Hooper, Rick Wakeman, Richard Hudson, John Ford, Blue Weaver, Dave Lambert, Chas Cronk, Rod Coombes a John Hawken. Cousinsova hudobná vízia viedla skupinu Strawbs k vývoju jej štýlu od folkových koreňov až k tomu, aby sa stala jednou z popredných britských progresívnych rockových skupín.

Medzi rokmi 1966 a 1984 nahral Strawbs mnoho pamätných rozhlasových a televíznych nahrávok pre BBC a ďalších vysielateľov v Spojenom kráľovstve. Táto remastrovaná boxová sada obsahuje všetky zachované rozhlasové a televízne nahrávky kapely pre BBC spolu s niekoľkými skladbami nahranými pre iných vysielateľov, vrátane troch kompletných koncertných relácií BBC Radio In, vystúpení v The Old Grey Whistle Test a Top Of The Pops a vystúpenia Strawbsa na Cambridge Folk Festival v roku 1983.

Je to nádherná pocta hudobnému odkazu zosnulého Davea Cousinsa.
