Door de Brexit komen titels die uit de UK afkomstig zijn nog altijd
met vertraging binnen. Soms valt het mee en duurt het slechts 2-3
weken, maar het komt helaas ook voor dat we 4 weken of meer moeten
wachten. We doen ons best om alles zo goed en snel mogelijk te
regelen, maar het blijft lastig...

Omschrijving | IF ONLY is the impressive debut release by the
American symphonic/neo/melodic prog rock group THE
FAR CRY. It is a refreshing and varied collection
of tracks which, whilst showing the musician‘s own
influences - from the classic ‘70s prog/classic
rock period, through the neo-prog era and onto
more modern prog - creates a musical landscape that
is a unique mix of all of these as well. Sounds
like Progressive Rock bands of the early 70’s, most
notably King Crimson, Yes, Genesis, Gentle Giant
and even an occasional touch of Frank Zappa, but
with an American approach.
The basis of the Far Cry goes back to 1976 when the
musical
friends Robert Hutchinson (drums, percussion, bells
and
spoken words) and Jeff Brewer (lead/backing vocals,
bass,
bass synth, bass pedals and guitar) started to make
music
together. And in the Eighties the duo was part of
the highly
acclaimed USA prog band Holding Pattern. Fast
forward to 2013
when Robert Hutchinson purchased a speaker cabinet
Jeff
Brewer had for sale. In the attendant dialogue, the
pursuit
of the likely impossible was quickly broached and a
decision
made to chase the dream just one more time. Thus
the seeds
for The Far Cry were sown. Eventually, the duo
decided to
enter the recording studio to get the material up
and
running. Guitarist Bryan Collin had already been in
contact,
having answered a Craigslist ad, and was amenable
to playing
on the recordings. Bryan Collin was now The Far Cry
guitarist. Still, a highly competent keyboardist
was
required. Studio owner and master engineer John
Bolduc was
asked if he knew of any keyboard man who could
properly
interpret and perform the music he was hearing.
John
responded instantaneously: Chris Dabbo. No time was
wasted in
contacting him. All involved were highly enthused
and Chris
was drafted in as keyboardist for The Far Cry. Most
of the 7
compositions on their debut If Only... are built
around the
dynamic, alternating and powerful rhythm section
(Robert on
drums and Jeff on bass), embellished with inventive
work on
keyboards and guitars.
