Jeff Scott Soto - "Holding On" (ft. BJ)
Μία ενδιαφέρουσα ιδέα υλοποιεί ο Jeff Scott Soto. Κάνει αναδρομή σε τραγούδια που τραγούδησε στο παρελθόν (στην "πλούσια" καριέρα του) και τα επαναηχογραφεί. Και που είναι το πρωτότυπο και το ενδιαφέρον; Θα ρωτήσετε.
Στο ότι συνεργάζεται με άλλους τραγουδιστές όπως ο Mats Leven, ο Eric Martin, ο Erik Mårtensson, ο Johnny Gioeli, ο Dino Jelusick, κλπ. Κάθε τραγούδι κι ένα ντουέτο. Ο δίσκος τιτλοφορείται "The Duets Collection, Vol.1" (υπονοώντας ότι θα υπάρξει και συνέχεια) και κυκλοφορεί ήδη.
Ο Jeff Scott Soto δεν νομίζω ότι χρειάζεται ιδιαίτερες συστάσεις. Αμερικανός τραγουδιστής ενεργός από τις αρχές της δεκαετίας του ογδόντα μέχρι και τις ημέρες μας. Στην "πλούσια" δισκογραφία του βρίσκουμε -μεταξύ άλλων- τα φωνητικά σε albums των Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force (στους κλασικούς δίσκους "Rising Force", "Marching Out"), Kryst the Conqueror, Talisman, Axel Rudi Pell, Sons of Apollo, Panther κλπ.
Δελτίο τύπου: «Acclaimed rock vocalist Jeff Scott Soto has released his latest solo project, "The Duets Collection, Vol. 1". For this album, Soto wanted to do a career retrospective and re-record some of his favorite songs from his storied career, but with the twist that he invited friends to join him on duets of said songs.
Using the down time from his normally relentless touring activity due to the worldwide pandemic, renowned vocalist Jeff Scott Soto decided to create a very special album which pays tribute to some of the classic songs he has recorded over the course of his storied career.
But, rather than simple re-records, he wanted to make the album something special, unique. So, not only did he re-record these songs with his musical friends Jorge Salan, Howie Simon (guitars), Leo Mancini (guitars), Tony Dickinson (bass) and Edu Cominato (drums), but he called in some of his fellow rock friends/vocalists to create a unique DUETS album.
With the likes of Erik Mårtensson (Eclipse, W.E.T.), Dino Jelusick (Animal Drive, Dirty Shirley), Eric Martin (Mr. Big), Johnny Gioeli (Hardline), Deen Castronovo (Revolution Saints, Journey), Nathan James (Inglorious), Russell Allen (Symphony X), Renan Zonta (Electric Mob), Mats Leven (Candlemass, TSO), BJ (Spektra, SOTO), and Aliro Netto (Shaman, Queen Extravaganza), this is an amazing international affair.
The track listing alone will surely make any JSS fan excited, much less hearing the final product. Where can you get such an amazing list of singers and songs all in the same place?
Jeff says, "It was a DREAM to cast these voices and I am so amped for you to hear the results…”
Jeff Scott Soto is a man that needs virtually no introduction to any discerning melodic rock fan. Jeff launched his career at the young age of 18 years old in tremendous fashion as the lead vocalist for Yngwie Malmsteen’s debut album, "Rising Force" and the sophomore album, “Marching Out”.
That first step into the spotlight has led to a career that has seen Jeff play and work with an outstanding number of artists and genres from the AOR of Eyes and Takara, to the hard rock and metal of Talisman, Axel Rudi Pell, Soul SirkUS, and of course, his time with the legendary Journey. Jeff has also maintained a solo career over the past decades, while also recently joining up with the progressive metal supergroup Sons of Apollo. »
