Free "GOD" download...

I know you DAmbers are an eclectic and intelligent bunch with varied musical tastes, so I thought I'd share news of Planet P Project's latest album... the first in 20 years, actually!

How many of you remember Tony Carey? I Won't be Home Tonight ? A Fine, Fine Day ? Why Me ?

Bueller,... anybody... anybody...?

His alter-ego Planet P Project has an incredible new 1st-of-3-parts concept album entitled "GOD" (ie., Go Out Dancing - 1931) for download absolutely free on his website. It's part Ziggy Stardust, part The Wall with great music and intelligent, thoughtful lyrics.

If you don't know, Tony Carey is akin to a secular Mark Heard who after his initial taste of success decided to forego the hollywood-ish music biz, moved to Germany and continued to put out really good music (decide for yourself).

Let everyone know what you think!

Looks like his download server crashed. I'll have to check that it out later.

I used to have the Planet P Project album on cassette. That video for Why Me? was one of my favorites back when MTV played music videos.

Thanks for the link, gasket!

You bet, Pup!

Glad to find another who likes them! It took me a couple of days to download the whole thing (in between server crashes!), but it is well worth the wait and effort; very thematically powerful, besides musically and lyrically. If you liked the self-titled Planet P Project album you'll be blown away by this one.

  download info:

Even if the download page shows a message such as "Sorry! The servers crashed 3 times in the first 52 hours of download availability due to high demand..." make sure you look at the Tracklist in the download at 128 kb/s column. If it highlights when your cursor is over it you can download!
