Kevin Gilbert — Music To Use Crayons By
This volume collects instrumental tracks, instrumental demos, and TV Mixes that reach through Kevin Gilbert’s career, where he frequently reworked projects of the past, and where the music just as often hinted at things to come. A TV Mix is a version of a song presented without lead vocals, still retaining elements such as instrumentation and background vocals.
Much of this collection has gone unheard, and many tracks stand out, perhaps none more than the unfinished and never before released “If Your Love Has To.”
There is a story arc to this collection. The early versions and the TV Mixes together forge a portrait of a hard-working musician in a hard-to-work town.
There are vibes here heard rarely or nowhere else in the KG collection, and maybe a few that are easier to discern in this format. From the opening track “Pit #11,” to the album’s close with the TV Mix of “A Long Day’s Life,” expect to hear KG as you’ve not heard him before.
On this disc you’ll hear from NRG, you’ll hear from Giraffe, but you’ll also find more, such as TV Mixes for songs that fans will recognize. In all cases, the hearing is fresh.
This music has not been released before, and is sure to color your day.
