Description
• NEWLY REMASTERED & EXPANDED 3 DISC SET OF MAN’S 1992 "COMEBACK” ALBUM
• INCLUDES TWO ADDITIONAL CDs OF MAN’s FULL PERFORMANCE AT THE GLASTONBURY FESTIVAL IN JUNE 1994, PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED
• LAVISHLY ILLUSTRATED BOOKLET WITH NEW ESSAY & PHOTOGRAPHS
Esoteric Recordings are pleased to announce the expanded release of Man’s classic 1992 studio album "The Twang Dynasty”. Although Man had reformed in 1983 to perform live, "The Twang Dynasty” was Man’s first studio record release in sixteen years. The album was a very strong "comeback” that stands alongside the band’s work in the 1970s. Featuring a line-up of MICKY JONES (Guitar, Vocals), DEKE LEONARD (Guitar, Vocals), MARTIN ACE (Bass, Vocals) and JOHN WEATHERS (drums), "The Twang Dynasty” featured excellent material such as ‘A Feather on the Scales of Justice’, ‘The Chinese Cut’ and ‘The Wings of Mercury’ (dedicated to the late John Cipollina of Quicksilver Messenger Service who had performed with MAN).
The deluxe set is newly re-mastered and features two additional CDs of Man’s complete set at Glastonbury Festival on 25th June 1994, featuring many tracks from "The Twang Dynasty”, along with splendid performances of classic tracks such as ‘C’Mon’, ‘Many Are Called, But Few Get Up’, ‘Bananas’ and ‘Romain’. The set also includes an illustrated booklet with new essay and photographs.
NB: This title is released July 28 and will not be dispatched before this date.
