George Keller Band - Colours - Import CD

Description:

The band led by Norwegian multi-instrumentalist George Keller, who also worked as a producer and arranger, released their only album on Norwegian label CBS in 1974, and this is the first time the album has been remastered and released on Norwegian label NorskeAlbumklassikere. The only album released on Norway's CBS label in 1974 was newly remastered and released on CD for the first time in '22 in a digi-sleeve version! The band features Freddy Dahl (g/vo), who is well-known to prog rock fans from his work with Juniper Greene/Ruphus/Saluki, Svein Gundersen (b), an original member of Aunt Marie, and Per IvarJohansen (drs). George Keller also released "Just Like Standin' Up" as a solo artist in 1974, but "Just Like -" was an art-rock album with grand piano and strings. JUST LIKE STANDIN' UP" is characterized by a crisp, dry band sound that seems to have been inspired by the American rock/pop music of the same era, including Todd Rundgren.The album also includes some songs that progressive rock fans should not overlook, such as "In My Solitude," which features a melancholy melody supported by backing piano and weeping guitar, and "Hidden Path," whose interludes were later rearranged and extended for inclusion on Saluki's 1977 album! The master was newly remastered by Giert Claussen, the engineer who handles all of the label's releases.
