Jon Anderson, Rick Wakeman Gentle Giant, Strawbs e molto altro sul nuovo cofanetto di Tony Visconti



Il lavoro del famoso produttore Tony Visconti celebrato nel nuovo cofanetto di 4 dischi o 8 LP, Produced By Tony Visconti, in uscita a ottobre


Gli ex membri degli Yes Jon Anderson e Rick Wakeman, The Moody Blues, Renaissance, Gentle Giant, Strawbs, Argent e Procol Harum sono alcune delle delizie prog di un nuovissimo cofanetto che celebra il lavoro del famoso produttore Tony Visconti.

Prodotto da Tony Visconti, curato dal produttore stesso, trattasi di un cofanetto CD composto da quattro dischi a 77 tracce in edizione limitata, o un cofanetto LP con sei album in vinile per un totale di 60 tracce, ed è disponibile anche come doppio album in vinile a 14 tracce, che sarà pubblicato attraverso Edsel and Demon Records il 20 ottobre.

 

"Questo cofanetto copre cinque decenni e mezzo dei miei sforzi nell'arte di realizzare registrazioni iconiche", afferma Visconti. "Alcune di esse sono familiari e altre provocheranno momenti di stupore…”

Ampiamente riconosciuto come uno dei più importanti produttori dell'era rock, Visconti è strettamente associato a David Bowie - con il quale ha lavorato su 14 album, tra cui la celebre trilogia berlinese di Heroes, Low e Lodger e l'ultimo album di Bowie, Blackstar del 2016 - e a Marc Bolan e i suoi T-Rex, con cui ha lavorato su dieci album.

Visconti ha anche lavorato con Thin Lizzy, U2, Manic Street Preachers, Boomtown Rats, The Move, The Alarm, Adam Ant, Hazel O'Connor e altri, tutti presenti anche in Produced By Tony Visconti.

Il contenitore CD è all’interno di un libro deluxe rilegato in un cofanetto di 80 pagine e il set in vinile è contenuto in un cofanetto deluxe con un libretto di 60 pagine (12x12), con fotografie inedite, un'introduzione di Visconti, ampie note di copertina track-by-track dell'autore e del giornalista Mark Paytress (inclusi commenti track-by-track di Tony) e tributi da una selezione di artisti presenti.
