ANTARTICA LIVE
THE COMPLETE COLLECTION
Eleven Original Live Performances Originally Recorded live to stereo in 1982
Marc Soucy - keyboards
Jeff Carano - bass
Ray Lavigne - drums
ANTARTICA LIVE brings together, for the first time, eleven remastered live performances by the progressive fusion trio Antartica.
Originally recorded in 1982 and presented largely as performed, these recordings capture the group at full creative momentum, blending progressive rock, jazz fusion, adventurous improvisation, and ambitious original compositions. Rather than being built in the studio, the music evolved on stage through the interaction of three musicians pushing compositions beyond their written form.
Recorded with virtually no post-production and almost entirely free of overdubs, ANTARTICA LIVE preserves the immediacy, precision, and spontaneity of live ensemble performance. Heard together as a complete collection, these performances document an important early chapter in Marc Soucy's musical journey and foreshadow many of the compositional qualities that continue to define his work today.
For fans of: Frank Zappa • Gentle Giant • Return to Forever • Emerson, Lake & Palmer • U.K.
