Dave Davies 'Chosen People' re-released on CD!
the long-awaited for the first time ever on CD of Dave Davies' 1983 studio album 'Chosen People', rescued from the Warner Brother's vaults by Wounded Bird records was finally released on September 13th, 2005!
an extreamly powerful album felt instantly in the first instrumental track Tapas, sets the pace for what's to come for the rest of the album.
the trademark Dave Davies powerful guitar riffs mixed with soft and powerful vocals expressing Dave's deep sentiments and strong feelings about the world we are living in and the new direction in which humanity must take.
"The world is in such a sorry state. In the papers, in the news. Politicians can't see their hands from their feet. Nobody cares about the truth. We all must make a stand, for everything that we believe in, every woman, every man." - Matter of Decision
'Chosen People', the 3rd Dave Davies solo album is a much overlooked masterpiece in rock history which was never given the proper light of day. now, i believe this album, re-mastered and re-packaged and available for the first time ever on CD will finally be given it's credit long overdue!
"Deep in my heart I know. There is a destiny. Through all the sadness I see." - Take One More Chance
i remember when my dad brought the first copies home when i was 11 years old, Love Get's You was the tune that stuck in my head. This song should have been a huge hit back in 1983! other personal favourite tracks are True Story, Chosen People, Take One More Chance and Freedom Lies.
"Freedom, there's more to your life somehow. Old laws, man has made only blind. Oh, give us freedom, a call to the brave and the strong, To stand in the face of all wrong and show the way. Freedom to live out the dream in a song, Give hope to the hearts of the young. Oh, give us freedom to act out of love and not fear, So all that is true will be clear." - Freedom Lies
listen to how this album finishes off beautifully with the string arrangements on the track 'Cold Winter'. click on the link below for further information, sound clips, lyrics and where you can purchase this lost masterpiece from Wounded Bird Records.
enjoy!
