Rave On, A Madchester Celebration
The Blog That Celebrates Itself (tbtci), a primarily Shoegaze blog run by Renato Malizia in Brazil, regularly releases free compilations on Bandcamp with various invited artists covering some of Renato's favorite bands and trends in music. I was honored to be included on this compilation, celebrating the scene in Manchester UK during the 80's and 90's. I chose to cover Pleasure, by The Soup Dragons. It's a really cool song, quite a bit out of my usual style, so it was a challenge to work on something out of character for me. I have to say, I really enjoyed it!! I'm especially proud of the Jeff Beck-inspired guitar solo. A free download, all the tracks are worth hearing. Great songs, covered creatively by so many talented bands.
