Chris White Experience - Production Sessions Vol 5 (Uk) [CD]

The popularity of The Zombies has soared over the last few years, and has continued to grow since their induction to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019. After disbanding before their seminal Odessey & Oracle album was released, Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone have revived the band with a new touring line-up, while original bass player Chris White has continued his career as a songwriter and producer. The Chris White Experience showcases some of that material. The fifth volume of The Chris White Experience comprises another 12 excellent recordings from his production career, capturing studio performances from Colin Blunstsone, John Verity, and Sparrow, incorporating previously unreleased recordings from Diana Dors, Michael Fennelly, Duffy Power, and Moonstone. Recorded and mixed in locations ranging from Wally Heider Studios in California to long standing London locations; Abbey Road and Livingstone Studios. The songs are written by a number of notable names; including Paul Williams, Pete Brown, Randazzo and Pike, and Chris White himself. The booklet contains artwork, performer line-ups, memories from each of the sessions from those involved, and an enlightening introduction written by musician and author Andy Nye. Volume Five spans recordings from 1968 onwards, and is the fifth in a multi-CD collection covering Chris White's career between the dissolution of the original Zombies up to the current day. Volumes One to Four are also available now, and will be followed by further albums showcasing unreleased sessions and songs from the last 50 years.
