Glazier - Masters of the Scene (7us/7hard)

Описание: Glazier is the brain-child of songwriter/guitarist/vocalist Tony Whiting, who hails from the seaside town of Worthing on the south coast of England. Glazier has come into being after he wrote a song about a colleague called Dave, who’s nick-name to some is ‘Ketamine Dave’. Not satisfied with just one song, he soon realised the potential for a group of songs in the form of a concept album, and set about writing the story.

He approached his musician friend, multi-instrumentalist Niall Hone, ex longtime member of the Kings of Space Rock, ‘Hawkwind’. Niall was able to offer lead guitar, bass guitar, keyboards, and backing vocals, and also acted as engineer/producer of all the tracks. Long time collaborator Gareth Burgess (The Golgis) was recruited for drumming duties.

The resulting album, entitled ‘The Crave of Ketamine Dave’, consists of 8 songs telling the troubled story of Dave from teenage years to middle age, and highlighting the traps and unescapable holes that mind-altering substances can make any person fall in to. The musical style ranges from thought provoking acoustic to hard power rock, with a large dose of psychedelic dreaming, all with catchy hooks.
