CD/DVD Releases: Galahad News

Posted on Saturday, October 12 @ 15:00:00 UTC by nightowl

From the Galahad camp we learned in August that "Galahad have, once again, been in the studio with Karl Groom working on a few songs which will be released as EPs/singles throughout the next twelve months or so.

"These 'new' recordings feature an eclectic mixture of new versions of older songs, re-mixes and edits of existing songs, plus an unusual cover which will be released as a single in its own right sometime soon!

"More details regarding these releases will emerge in the coming weeks."

Also, it was 2 years ago this past September that Galahad bassist Neil Pepper died of oesophageal cancer; the band have made available for download on the band's website's merchandise page one of Pepper's tracks, "Outerlife," which was recorded circa 1997 and "and features Bruce Soord of The Pineapple Thief on guest vocals. Unfortunately, only a cassette version exists which we have converted to MP3 and the sound quality is not too shabby."

"All proceeds from the sale of this track (minimum 45p... so a bargain really) will go to Neil's family, his wife Jojo, and their three young children Rosie, Poppy and Finn plus, of course, you will also be helping to keep his memory alive."

"A limited number of [One For The Record – The Official Galahad Biography)] have been signed by the author Andrew Wild as well as the band and are available now. The book also comes with a very interesting archive DVD featuring rare and previously unreleased live video footage of the band as far back as 1986!"
