LEVIN TORN WHITE CD
« on: September 23, 2011, 02:05:14 AM »
If you haven't already heard, the album LEVIN TORN WHITE was released last week.  Just thought we'd get the word out to Dream Theater and LTE fans.

Here's a link to the video:

Enjoy!

I'll be getting this one soon. It's nice to hear Alan White branching out and playing this well.
WHOA, NICE GRAPHICS!

can I safely assume that Tony Levin on this disc?

Can't check from work.....but I follow most of his stuff.
Take care everyone - Bet you all didn't even notice I was gone.

Happy Lives to you all.

Yes, this album features Tony Levin, David Torn and Alan White (from Yes).  :)

Just got this earlier this week, and I gotta say - Alan White really rips through this disc a lot more than he did on Yes' Fly From Here, and it shows that he's still got SOME spark left in his drumming. Levin and Torn perform as usual, and the music is a cross between King Crimson/Yes and the BLUE sessions that Levin and Torn had with Bruford. It's straight rock with prog-tendencies with some wacky Torn-moments that really remind me of Robert Fripp, but it might just be Tony Levin's involvement that remind me of some Crimson-y sounds.

This is a good album, although I've yet to listen to it more than once this week (been too busy listening to the new DT album, as well as every other previous DT album lol).

I hope they can find the time to tour this.

I still need to get it.

I really wish I could afford one of those Levin-Belew shows too.

The music in the youtube link sounded good.  Good enough that I think I need to pick this up eventually.
