CHRIS POLAND - Rare Trax

RARE TRAX, the second Grooveyard Records CD release is a limited edition, 67 minute collection of more rare, previously unreleased recordings from axemaster CHRIS POLAND. On this limited edition CD you will find tracks from MUMBO'S BRAIN, Chris’ first post-DAMN THE MACHINE group. With the unique vocals of John Skipp and the atmospheric, dark vibe of these tracks, not to mention Chris’ mindblowing leads, MUMBO'S BRAIN is like nothing you’ve ever heard. Also on offer are five trax by NOTHING IF NOT, a rare recording project Chris put together in 1997 which features the beautiful, melodic vocals of Carol McArthur combined with some of Chris’ best leadwork ever, making these tracks true standouts on the disc. In addition, RARE TRAX also features two haunting solo acoustic pieces from Chris’ archives and a live 10 minute improvisational jam from Chris’ new instrumental fusion power trio, OHM. RARE TRAX contains a little something for everyone and continues to solidify Chris' reputation as one of the greatest rock guitarists of our time.
