SPEED GLUE & SHINKI - CD SPEED, GLUE & SHINKI

Popis - SPEED, GLUE & SHINKI:
Jewel case edition. Following on from the gutsy blues-rock groove of the band's first and probably only genuine studio release, Speed, Glue & Shinki's second release, often referred to as 'Tiger' brought together a number of tracks not included on 'Eve', as well as some new recordings that took a very different musical slant. Joey Smith decided that as he could he handle himself admirably on drums, it was time to challenge a new instrument so he bought a synthesizer. Drafting in friend Mike Hanopol to take over the bass-playing duties from the departed Masayoshi "Glue" Kabe, Smith managed to produce an album of two halves, the first being some of the strongest SGS-esque material ever, the second being some fine electronic instrumentals in the Tangerine Dream mode. Following the release of the album Smith and Hanopol flew back to Manilla to become Filipino superstars, while Shinki eschewed the recording of his music in preference to live recordings and Kabe found alternative employment in the highly popular band, Pink Cloud. However, the band's legacy lives on in 'Tiger', a compendium of the sound of 'Eve' and a taste of where the band might have gone had time, personalities and huge amounts of illicit drugs not exerted their influences.
