Description: | Reissued 2015 album of the legendary Porcupine Tree, King Crimson and The Pineapple Thief drummer Gavin Harrison. Boasting performances from some of the Worldâ??s best contemporary Jazz players, Porcupine Tree classics such as â??Heart Attack In A Laybyâ?? and â??Hatesongâ?? take on a new life in striking arrangements by Laurence Cottle (ex Bill Brufordâ??s Earthworks & Alan Parsons Project) and co-produced with Gavin Harrison. - =SOLO ALBUM FOR PORCUPINE TREE/KING CRIMSON DRUMMER=Gavin Harrison, drummer with British Prog innovators Porcupine Tree, currently working with King Crimson, and a musician whose playing and performing résumé includes stints with artists as varied as Iggy Pop, Lewis Taylor, Manfred Mann and Kevin Ayers, is to release a brand new solo album, entitled Cheating The Polygraph. Cheating The Polygraph is an ambitious project which sees the restlessly creative Harrison re-imagine eight songs from the acclaimed Porcupine Tree repertoire, in a set of vivid and vibrant new arrangements that give full, free rein to his enquiring musical mind. The eight tracks which comprise the album were recorded over a five-year period, with Harrison working in conjunction with a crew of some of the finest contemporary musicians, including the gifted saxophonist Nigel Hitchcock and bass player Laurence Cottle. It's a set that will no doubt excite much controversy; Harrison use of the 'Big Band' musical sound stage isn't some ersatz attempt to make a 'Swing' album; it's closer in execution and arrangement to the innovative works of Frank Zappa & The Mothers of Invention, a layered, richly-textured selection that is both beautifully-recorded and incisively delivered. |
