MP3 Jimmy Sparks & The Blizzard - ROCK: Progressive Rock
10 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Progressive Rock, ROCK: 70''s Rock
Details:
Welcome to the brand new compilation of songs from Jimmy Sparks entitled "Jimmy Sparks & The Blizzard." This is the follow-up to "Jimmy Sparks & The Mist" released in early 2004 and also still available. Like "The Mist", this collection was also created as a conceptual project which pays tribute to the artists of yesteryear who loved creating art with their rock and roll. Artists like Pink Floyd, The Moody Blues, ELP, Yes, King Crimson, David Bowie, Brian Wilson & Nick Lowe were just a few of the influences tapped for this project. While "The Mist" had a certain relaxing ethereal quality to it, "The Blizzard" is more upbeat and melodic while at the same time, progressive.
If you are looking for a good reason to check this project out, proceed right to the end and listen to "Dear Majesty." Here you''ll find sound clips from an actual mellotron from the past and not a facsimile or keyboard recreation. What you won''t hear in this 2 minute sample is the build -up into a faster song which really makes it the best piece on the CD.
Each song could easily stand on its own, but together, they form a story. This is a journey which starts from negativity and isolation, yet ends in understanding and peace. It''s a story of an all too common problem in the world today - apathy.
At the risk of being pretentious, I hope you''ll find this collection insightful as well as enjoyable!
