Post Description
This 2013 edition of their classic ‘Snow Goose’ album has been completely & lovingly Re-Recorded & Re-Packaged by Andy Latimer & co.!
Inspired by a short story written by Paul Gallico, this beautiful album was one of the band’s most popular releases, and it has been lovingly Re-Recorded by the 2013 line-up to coincide with their autumn European comeback tour.
The concept is not only a timeless story of love and war, it is a tale of dignity and kindness lifted to the heart on the wings of an injured Snow Goose through her unique relationship with two humans.
Dedicated to the memory of the co-writer and keyboards player on the original 1975 Vinyl LP: Peter Bardens (1945 – 2002), and acknowledging the input from Doug Ferguson and Andy Ward for their contributions to the concept, development and recording of the original album, I can tell you that this brand new version of the classic ‘Snow Goose’ by everybody’s favourite symphonic prog band is superb!
From the line-up of Andy Latimer (guitars / flute / keyboards), Guy LeBlanc (keyboards), Colin Bass (bass guitar) and Denis Clement (keyboards / drums / percussion), this new version basically remains faithful to the original, with some tracks revised slightly. The tasty arrangements and enhancements made to the original for the recent stage presentation of ‘Snow Goose’ are perfect; with none of the charm of the original lost in translation.
With the band just back from their UK/European tour, the CD is already temporarily out-of-print, so order yourself a copy while you can from what remains our current stock!
