(Glass Onyon) Be-Bop Deluxe Legend Bill Nelson's unreleased album "Powertron" will finally be released on May 3, 2024. Recorded in 2016, "Powertron" has languished in the Bill Nelson archives for eight years.
A potent collection of twelve pieces that highlight Nelson's prowess and invention as a guitarist. He shared, "Its genesis came whilst recording tracks for 'The Jewel' album. Amongst these was a track titled 'Drive Shaft' which I considered too brash for 'The Jewel', but too good to abandon.
"I decided to create a suitable album to house 'Drive Shaft' and 'Powertron' was the result. It's an album of left-field rock songs, mainly vocal but layered with loud and edgy guitars. It will appeal to those who enjoy the wilder side of my work."
Track list:
01) Fascinating Noise
02) A River On The Edge Of Time
03) Dreams And Smoke (Flow With The River)
04) The Moon Came In My Window
05) Where's The Wonder?
06) Loose Chippings
07) When I Don't Feel Blue
08) Moments In The Day
09) Fair Winds And Steam Machines
10) Sailing My Boat
11) Laughing Sailors, Raging Seas
12) Drive Shaft
