- gowy: rebirth
(2024, cd, France, private release)
(The CD version of) Grégory 'Gowy' François' excellent "Rebirth" album arrived last week.
Great music in a beautiful package.
The album is out on CD and on LP.
Amazing (mostly) instrumental guitar music.
Essential listening for guitar aficionados. If you're into Steve Vai, Joe Satriani (and Frank Zappa), this will bring you joy.
I can only repeat what I said a little while ago:
The album opens with a dialogue that sounds like a scene from "Les Ch'tis", a weird movie about the people in the north of France, and jumps into some sort of heavy rock song called 'L'apocalimssss (wdywa)'. But there are also lyrical instrumentals, oriental flavours, experimental fragments, a doo-wop song, and even a (short) classical piece.
"Rebirth" is technically stunning but it will also put a smile on your face, and that's what it's all about.
