When Roye Albrighton died on July 26th, 2016, many fans assumed NEKTAR, a band he’s fronted since 1969 and again, after a hiatus, since 2000, would cease to exist, but no: they’re ready to carry on, led by another founding member, drummer Ron Howden. While a new line-up is yet to be revealed, a memento from the group’s last tour has just been released. “Live In Bremen” was recorded back in 2015, at the show that turned out to be Roye’s final stage appearance, which makes it poignantly special.
It’s a 2CD set that’s comprised from both classic cuts, from such masterpiece’s as "A Tab In The Ocean", and newer numbers, including the title track of 2013’s "Time Machine".
