Put your headphones on. Turn out the lights. We're winding back the clock ... Remember when major record labels had big bucks to spend on creating aural masterpieces? When commercial musicians were given creative freedom and their work was released on sleek vinyl encased in gatefold sleeves? Those years may be a fond memory but Magenta's keyboard player Rob Reed has wound back the clock to produce a breathtaking concept album; Kompendium's "Beneath The Waves". The album features a guest list of Prog Rock's most respected musicians including Steve Hackett, Gavin Harrison, and Mel Collins. The album is a dark Celtic fairytale set in Ireland at the turn of the 20th century and is about a man whose wife commits suicide, only for them to be reunited in death. Steve Balsamo, recently with Jon Lord's band, takes on lead vocals.
