The Finnishing Touch (CD)
This is the re-mastered version of "The FINNISHING TOUCH". For this official release some of the songs have been remixed, while three new tracks have been added. The main theme on this album is built rather freely around the charming anonymous melody of a sad Finnish folksong. The harmonisation of the song is made by me, thus leaving me all possibilities to change it to the different styles of music. We have made it a classical piece, jazzed it up a little, made it a synthesizer piece, turned it to melodic metal and finally ended it in a happy folk-dance. On this album we have mixed jazz-rock to symphonic rock, trying to create a dynamic sound. Apart from the new compositions we also recorded some oldies like Little Alice & I Miss You More, both performed in the early eighties by power-rock trio BRANCARD. The songs Without Tears, The Missing Drink & the bonus-track Desire are taken from the ZOUNDWORKS repertoire of 1984. The piece Saudades de Sor is a jazz piece built around a chord progression of the 19th century composer Fernando Sor (1778 - 1839). It's performed on a copy of one of Sor's guitars, a Panormo of 1828. The only piece on this album by Jason is about James the Rover. While making this recording, James was ready suffering severe ailments. Of course we wish James a fast recovering. In the Finnish Finish some less frequent instruments in rock music, like a mandolin, a lute, a renaissance drum & a harpsichord can be heard. We hope you will appreciate our new album and enjoy listening to it!
