More information: UK prog rock veterans Galahad release their 11th studio album 'The Last Great Adventurer', the follow-up to 2018's Seas Of Change, recorded at several locations over the last couple of years by the various band members and finally edited, mixed and mastered, as usual, by engineer/producer extraordinaire Karl Groom (Threshold).
This latest opus has been several years in the making and many of the songs on the album actually pre-date the previous ‘Seas of Change’ album from 2018!
The Last Great Adventurer is the first Galahad studio album to feature Mark Spencer (Twelfth Night/Alan Reed) on bass guitar, who joins the long established nucleus of Stu Nicholson (vocals), Dean Baker (keyboards), Spencer Luckman (drums), and Lee Abraham (guitar).
The main album consists of five tracks plus two bonus tracks on the CD including a new version of ‘Another Life Not Lived’ originally written by the late and much missed Neil Pepper and Stu back in 2009.
"Musically the album has a crisp contemporary sound but also still includes plenty of nods to the band’s progressive heritage, particularly on the closing title track which is a very personal tribute to Stuart’s father, Bob," the band say.
