Colosseum Ii

Description:

Coliseum II, a jazz-rock band founded by former Coliseum-Tempest drummer John Heisman with Gary Moore, was unique in the British rock scene of the 1970s and showed the greatness of Gary Moore's guitar playing. The sound created by Gary Moore's rock guitarist characteristics and his technique, supported by three technicians, John Heisman, Don Airey, and John Moll, was distinctly different from the American jazz fusion music of the time. The band's intelligent jazz-rock sound did not achieve business success, but it gained a strong following among fans. This release features the best remastering available, thanks to the discovery of live studio recordings for a BBC radio program and FM recordings of a concert in Germany. This is a live archive of a band that left a strong impression on British rock fans despite only being active for less than three years.Imported domestic specs Gary Moore (g, vo) John Heisman (ds) John Moll (b) Don Airey (kbds)
