Hensley, Ken: My Book Of Answers (White & Black Splatter Vinyl)
Title: My Book Of Answers (White & Black Splatter Vinyl)
Label: Hne
Product Type: VINYL LP
Limited white and black splatter vinyl LP pressing. A unique solo album from former Gods and Uriah Heep man Ken Hensley. Few artists can claim to have had a musical career and pedigree as long, varied and impressive as songwriter, keyboard player, guitarist, vocalist and multi- instrumentalist Ken Hensley. My Book Of Answers started with a chance encounter at Alicante airport on a flight bound for Moscow in 2018, when Russian businessman Vladimir Emelin approached Ken. Vladimir didn't have a background in the music industry, and had never made a record, but had been a big rock fan all his life, with a special appreciation of Ken. From translations of Vladimir's Russian words into English, Ken fashioned choruses and verses until he had the basis for nine original new songs. The main stumbling block to starting this record was finding the time to create it. And then the pandemic happened. Thankfully advances in modern technology meant that this album could be created and completed remotely.
Tracks:
1.1 Lost (My Guardian)
1.2 Right Here, Right Now
1.3 The Cold Sacrifice
1.4 The Silent Scream
1.5 Cover Girl
1.6 Light the Fire (In My Heart)
1.7 Stand (Chase the Beast Away)
1.8 The Darkest Hour
1.9 Suddenly
