ECLECTIC MAYBE BAND - AGAIN ALORS?

  • eclectic maybe band: again alors?
        (2022, cd, uk, discus-music)
"Again Alors?", the latest release by the Eclectic Maybe Band presents 8 tracks.
Common denominator Guy Segers assembled the material from different sessions and locations.
The Bandcamp liner notes give additional information:
"Using different groupings from within a large ensemble cast, which includes many well-known names, Guy has created an album where half the tracks are drawn from live improvisation in the studio and half are created from the ground up with players adding their composed or improvised parts one at a time. In both cases Guy assumes the role of master arranger, taking the improvisations as raw material and sculpting them into finished pieces."

The result is a very varied album. It guarantees quite a number of beautiful surprises and invites to multiple listening sessions.
Out on Martin Archer's Discus Music label and available through the Discus Music Bandcamp page.

I went for the CD (mainland Europe distribution from Berlin, so no VAT issues !!).
Next to the fact that it's nice to cherish, the CD also has detailed info for each track (participating musicians, recording session,...).
Featuring Guy Segers, Dirk Wachtelaer, Catherine Smet, Joe Higham, Michelle Delville, Martin Archer, to name just a few.
Mastered by Pierre Vervloesem!

Beautiful.
Check it out.
