Sons of Apollo: Live with the Plovdiv Psychotic Symphony [Blu-ray]

Концертный альбом прог-рок супергруппы Sons Of Apollo, состоящей из бывших участников Dream Theater, Guns N' Roses, Mr. Big и Journey. Специальный концертный релиз снят в захватывающем римском амфитеатре в Пловдиве, Болгария, 22 сентября 2018 года.

Выступление было разделено на два сета, которые включают в себя несколько известных каверов. Второй сет - совместное исполнение с оркестром и хором.

Релиз втакже ключает документальный фильм "за кулисами", плюс интервью и документальный фильм о создании дебютного альбома.

Sheehan, keyboard player Derek Sherinian and drummer Mike Portnoy proved to be irresistible on their debut album 'Psychotic Symphony', released in 2017. Now, they are putting out a special live release. This was filmed at the spectacular Roman Amphitheatre in Plovdiv, Bulgaria on September 22 last year. The band's performance was divided into two sets, the second of which saw them joined by a full orchestra and choir. There are a number of cover songs performed in both sets. And it was down to Portnoy to choose which tracks were done with the orchestra and choir: “[...]I have to say that all of the covers you'll get to see us do in the second part of the performance were only done that night and no other on the tour, which helps to make this unique.”

Mike Portnoy comments: “I’ve released several dozen live albums through the years with about a dozen different bands, but I have to say that this live release from Sons Of Apollo may indeed be the most special one of them all!! Everything was aligned that evening: an absolutely beautiful Roman amphitheatre and a perfectly gorgeous summer evening, one set of SOA material and one set of specially chosen cover songs, and to top it all off being joined by a symphony orchestra and choir…it was a magical evening for everybody in attendance and now we can share it with the rest of the world immortalized in this incredible live package.
