Given the course of Phil Manzanera life, creative and otherwise, his forthcoming autobiography “Revolución To Roxy” – to be published in March – is eagerly anticipated by many a fan, yet some of the guitarist’s weren’t too happy to learn that they would have to shell out a tidy sum for the book’s deluxe edition to get hold of a ten-track CD with rare and previously unreleased tracks which goes with it. So, always attentive to his followers’ needs, the veteran decided to make the disc available separately too.
Planned for release on April 12th, “Revolución To Roxy” – yes, the title is the same as that of the tome – isn’t a chronological compilation of Manzanera’s gems; rather, it’s a collection of Phil’s solo numbers, mostly captured onstage and presented here in less familiar form than they originally had. Mainly for completists, it’s a fascinating offering anyway.
