Sons Of Apollo - "Comfortably Numb" (Pink Floyd cover)

Ο δίσκος των Sons Of Apollo "Live with the Plovdiv Psychotic Symphony"
Μετά από ένα στουντιακό δίσκο κι ένα EP έφθασε η στιγμή για το πρώτο live album των Sons Of Apollo. Φέρει τον τίτλο "Live with the Plovdiv Psychotic Symphony" κι όπως μαρτυρά ο τίτλος του ηχογραφήθηκε / φιλμογραφήθηκε στην Βουλγαρία (σε αρχαίο ρωμαϊκό θέατρο) με την συμμετοχή της Plovdiv Psychotic Symphony. Το δεύτερο cd αποτελείται από διασκευές. Το συγκρότημα μπορεί να μην είναι ιδιαίτερα γνωστό, όμως οι μουσικοί που το απαρτίζουν κάθε άλλο παρά άγνωστοι είναι.

Την μπάντα δημιούργησαν δύο πρώην μέλη των Dream Theater: ο drummer Mike Portnoy και o πληκτράς Derek Sherinian. Μαζί τους ο Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal (ex-Guns N’ Roses), ο Billy Sheehan (The Winery Dogs, Mr. Big, David Lee Roth κλπ) και ο Jeff Scott Soto (ex-Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force, ex-Journey κλπ)...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Sons Of Apollo-former Dream Theater members Mike Portnoyand Derek Sherinian, Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal (ex-Guns N’ Roses), Billy Sheehan (The Winery Dogs, Mr. Big, David Lee Roth) and Jeff Scott Soto (ex-Journey, ex-YngwieMalmsteen's Rising Force) - are pleased to announce the release of ‘Live With The Plovdiv Psychotic Symphony’ on the 30th August 2019.

‘Live With The Plovdiv Psychotic Symphony’documents the band’s remarkable one-off performance at the Ancient Roman Theatre in Plovdiv, Bulgaria alongside a full orchestra & choir, playing tracks from their debut album ‘Psychotic Symphony’ as well as a selection of tracks by legendary bands. It will be available as a limited deluxe 3CD + DVD + Blu-Ray Artbook, Special Edition 3CD + DVD Digipak, Standalone Blu-Ray & Digital Album.»

Mike Portnoy: «In writing the setlist for Sons Of Apollo’s very first tour, I knew we had to include a few songs from the Dream Theater album 'Falling Into Infinity' which was the only full length studio album we did while Derek was in the band. I wanted to do 'Just Let Me Breathe’ as it’s one of the deeper cuts on the album and I knew SOA would absolutely slay it!

Between Bumble, Derek & Billy's crazy guitar, keys & bass unison sections and Jeff's overall driving, funky vocal delivery (with myself on the verses & chorus and Bumble on the bridge), I knew the Sons would breathe a whole new life into this track and even kick it up a few notches! Plus, as the song’s lyricist, I took artistic license and changed the lyric from 'Shannon Hoon’ to ‘Chris Cornell’ to give it a little more relevance in 2019.

I’ve released several dozen live albums through the years with about a dozen different bands, but I have to say that this live release from Sons Of Apollo may indeed be the most special one of them all!! Everything was aligned that evening: an absolutely beautiful Roman amphitheatre and a perfectly gorgeous summer evening, one set of SOA material and one set of specially chosen cover songs, and to top it all off being joined by a symphony orchestra and choir…it was a magical evening for everybody in attendance and now we can share it with the rest of the world immortalized in this incredible live package.»
