ce "nouvel" album posthume sera interessant, avec Nicky Moore au chant (des albums Before the Storm et Don't get mad get even), j'en ai entendu 1 extrait, c'est vraiment bon.

J'avais lu quelquepart qu'après Chemical Wedding, Dickinson s'était rapproché de Samson pour une éventuelle collaboration.

Puis Dickinson a rejoint Maiden et le projet est tombé aux oubliettes.

ça fait la deuxième fois que Maiden a "subtilisé" Dickinson à Paul Samson qui devait être bien vert.

Menfin, paix à son âme

Ouais, Samson devait se reformer avec Bruce. C'est tombé à l'eau quand il est retourné dans Maiden. Ils se sont d'ailleurs fait bien baiser par Maiden

A noter également la sortie d'un album inédit enregistré en 89! Look To The Future

British NWOBHM Samson just announced that band will re-release some of their albums. The next in the series of Samson reissues from HNE via Cherry Red on 27th April 2018 will be a 3 disc boxed set featuring Refugee, P.S.... and a previously unreleased album from 1989, Look To The Future.

Look To The Future was recorded in early 1989 by the continuing line up of Paul Samson, Toby Sadler (Keyboards), Dave Boyce (Bass) and Charlie Mack (Drums) along with new singer Peter Scallan. The completed album was considered by several labels to be rather contemporary for a Samson album and so the release was shelved, despite already being announced in the music press. Paul took the tapes back into the studio, reduced the keyboards and backing vocals and then added more guitars and replaced the bass parts before remixing, removing some tracks and adding two new instrumentals. The new version was released as Refugee in 1990.

When this reissue of Refugee was first discussed, it was suggested that these original recordings should be released for the first time and included in the package. The 11 tracks on the original track listing include re-recordings of "Too Late" and "The Silver Screen" from the "And There It Is" mini-album as well as a new take on the Samson standard "Losing My Grip". Another track found whilst restoring the tapes, "Who Do You Think You're Foolin'' has also been included, as well as two bonus tracks from the earlier still "Ignition" sessions featuring singer Mick White. Digital transfer and editing/pre-mastering by Rob Grain from the Paul Samson Archive.

Refugee is remastered from the original production tape and includes 4 bonus tracks from the 1989 Tommy Vance BBC Friday Rock Show session. P.S.... Is the final Samson album, completed after Paul's death by John McCoy, originally released in 2006.

This 3-CD set comes in a box and includes a 20 page booklet with sleevenotes by Malcolm Dome and previously unseen pictures and memorabilia from the Paul Samson Archive. Mastered by Tony Dixon at Masterpiece. Sleeve by Gilmour Designs.
