BILLY THORPE "tangier" cd 2010
aussie rocker, history lesson:
huge here through the 60's and early 70's before he ended up in a psych hospital
ended up in moving to the US where he wrote scores for movies and tv shows
show included War of the Worlds, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Columbo, Eight Is Enough and Hard Time on Planet Earth plus others before returning to Australia and working on numerous projects with Mick Fleetwood.
so on with this album"
most of the album was recorded by time he passed away in 2007 and Mick Fleetwood completed the album for release in 2010.
album is a colelction of songs Thorpe wrote during his visits/trekking through Morocco.
some proper rock on here other tracks contain traditional Moroccan sounds..
if i made a list of my favourite 100 albums of all time this would be on that list for sure
album scores 2.7 which means
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
