By George – By Bachman
El guitarrista canadiense Randy Bachman, lider de Guess Who y de Bachman Turner Overdrive homenaje a GEORGE HARRISON en su nuevo álbum “By George – By Bachman”, que saldrá al mercado discográfico el 2 de marzo de 2018.
13 canciones de varias canciones de Harrison con Beatles, incluida una canción de su paso por TRAVELING WILBURYS.
Al explicar el concepto de su álbum, Bachman asegura: “Pensé que adaptaría las canciones de George y les daría nuevos ritmos. Quería que los ritmos y los arreglos fueran diferentes, pero reconocibles por las letras. Cambié las tonalidades y las convertí en menores. Fue una interpretación completamente nueva de una canción familiar“.
El álbum también incluye una composición original de Bachman en homenaje a Harrison titulada “Between Two Mountains”, que aparece al principio y al final del disco. Randy dice de la inspiración de la canción fue: “la luz de George que brilló a través de lo que podría haber sido una sombra entre fuerzas tan montañosas como John [Lennon] y Paul [McCartney]”.
Como una ventaja adicional, Bachman analiza: “A lo largo del álbum, puse pequeños guiños que están asociados con las canciones de George, como la parte de diapositivas de ‘My Sweet Lord’ o el acorde de apertura de ‘A Hard Day’s Night’ que todos podrán notar”.

ELOSPAIN:
Canadian guitarist Randy Bachman, leader of Guess Who and Bachman Turner Overdrive, pays tribute to GEORGE HARRISON in his new album "By George - By Bachman," set to be released on March 2, 2018.
The album features 13 songs, including various Harrison compositions with The Beatles, as well as a song from his time with the Traveling Wilburys.
Explaining the concept of his album, Bachman states: "I thought I would reshape George’s songs and give them new rhythms. I wanted the rhythms and arrangements to be different but still recognizable from the lyrics. I changed the keys and turned them minor. It was a whole new interpretation of a familiar song."
The album also includes an original composition by Bachman as a tribute to Harrison titled "Between Two Mountains," which appears at the beginning and end of the record. Randy says the inspiration for the song was: "George’s light shining through what might have been a shadow between such towering forces as John [Lennon] and Paul [McCartney]."
As an added bonus, Bachman points out: "Throughout the album, I put little nods that are associated with George’s songs, like the slide part from ‘My Sweet Lord’ or the opening chord from ‘A Hard Day’s Night’ that everyone will notice."
Those who pre-order "By George - By Bachman" will receive an immediate free download of Randy's reggae-flavored version of "Here Comes the Sun."
