Stephen Dale Petit - 2020 Visions - [Vinyl]

"2020 Visions" decisively furthers Petit's revolutionary approach and ardent love affair with the blues�And the performances! Lightning-in-a-bottle captured expertly by sonic-genius Vance Powell, you have a 3 piece band firing on far more cylinders than they logically have a right to. Sophie Lord (bass) and Jack Greenwood (drums) turn in performances which astonish, disturb, seduce and convince. Lyrically Petit hat-tips William Yeats, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Karl Marx, Blind Willie Johnson, Christina Rosetti and John the Revelator in painting an incisive and compelling glimpse of the bigger picture. The intricate lyrical tapestry and kaleidoscopic soundscape are exquisitely reflected and enhanced by the album's spectacular artwork (Petit had to pass a musical audition before Klaus Voormann would consent to set his hand to brush, pen and keyboard). And� it should be emphasised that all of this was music was conceived, composed, arranged, recorded, mixed and mastered before December 31st, 2019. This music, created Then, takes place in our Now. A new decade arrives and ushers in a new age. A new album soundtracks the fascinating upheaval, a musical manifesto distils the exhilaration and foreboding turmoil. A users guide to living as the 20's roar again. Today, let the word go forth: "2020 Visions"! You'd better wear shades.
