COVERLINES | |
There's
a picture of George holding his first electric guitar. A birthday present
that his father had to work over-time for. The guitar is about as big
as he himself was then, but his eyes show that this is what he really
wanted, and the way ho holds the neck, shows a lot of skill already. It's
pinned on a wall now over a white piano, that is flanked by some eight
or nine of the finest acoustic and electric guitars that money can buy.
Eight years of hard work and paying dues on the one righter circuit as
leadguitarist and songwriter of Golden Earring materialised, so now he
can buy himself the guitars he wants to. But still he does a lot of his
picking on the old one . . George flew to New York to find the inspiration for this album, which is his first solo-effort, and inspiration he certainly found in the city of rock. Getting loose and jamming with the friends he made on the two tours of the States that Golden Earring did, sot the mood just right for one of the most significant rock-albums, that were ever recorded in a Dutch studio. Some of the songs are a downright reflection of his New York experience, especially those that wore co-written by New York friends, some deal with his personal relationships with other people. Each one is a fine example of his abilities as a songwriter, leadguitarist and recordproducer, that ensure us that the eight years that lay behind him are only the starting point for a lot of beautiful things to come. |
