Kartini Music have just released the debut album from
RBC - that is gravel-voiced guitarist extraordinaire
Prince Robinson together with
Colin Bass on bass and vocals and
Denis Clement on drums. Kartini says:
"RBC: from full-power three-way improvisation to quiet passages of compelling beauty, the music of Prince Robinson, Colin Bass & Denis Clement encompasses a spectrum as wide as their collected experiences. Evoking the psychedelic 60’s with their spontaneous and open approach, they mix elements of Blues, Funk, Progressive Rock and more to create a fresh contemporary take on the classic rock trio concept.
The debut album of RBC captures the spontaneous excitement of their live shows as well as showcasing the brilliantly inventive guitar orchestrations of Prince Robinson, who provides five of the original compositions. Two more come from the pen of Colin Bass and there are two “classical interludes” arranged by Prince Robinson from Bach and William Byrd, plus a full-tilt rock version of a classic track from Camel: Cloak and Dagger Man."
