Greaves, John - Piacenza CD
SKU
33-DC 003
Limited initial pressing of 980 individually hand-numbered copies!
John Greaves solo reminds me a lot - in a way - of Peter Hammill solo. They both have a core repertoire that they nearly always perform, so you tend to get a certain number of songs you always get, as well as new or unusual selections; the setlist changes very gradually over the decades.
Having said that, they are both wonderful solo performers with a unique body of works to draw from.
This isn't necessarily something you have to own if you already own a couple of his earlier solo albums, but if you don't own those, you absolutely want and need this!
