Joan Of Arc - Tony Conrad

Advantages: An Excellent and Interesting album that's a Classic in its Genre.
Disadvantages: It might be a Slow-Burner for some.

...**ALBUM INTRODUCTION** If you want to know what hard work is about, just take a look back at alternative metal band earthtone9. If they weren't touring they were producing first-rate albums (and they produced three in just over two years) and it is here that we look at their third and last album. It's was recorded at Philia Studios in Henley on Thames and Backstage Studios in Ripley with the production by the acclaimed Andy Sneap (who used to be in legendary 80's UK metal band Sabbat). **ALBUM LINE-UP** Karl Middleton (Vocals).

...A few years ago I was in a local pub and this handsome barman caught my eye!During a short break from bartending he took to the floor and I couldn't believe the sound which was coming from him-the place was brought to a standstill and the hairs on the back of my kneck stood to attention.We all knew we would see this guy again. I have recently bought his album and am pleased to say those hairs were once again up on the back of my kneck.Playing this in the car,I was almost spellbound by the amazing voice of Tony Henry-beautiful modern and familiar songs accompanied by The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra;She being a particular favourite of mine and the haunting First Time Ever I saw Your Face. Tony Henry deserves to be a star-I hope we hear a whole lot more of this beautiful voice.... Read review
