Rare DCD Track for Download
If you’re not already signed up for Brendan Perry’s newsletter, you should be. In addition to periodic updates on what Brendan is doing and news on the release date for his upcoming album (pending… always pending…) sometimes he also sends out links to rare or unreleased tracks from Dead Can Dance. These are always happy surprises in my inbox, and his is one of the few newsletters I bother to open and/or read.
Here are the details on his latest edition/download:
‘A Means of Escape’ was the first professional studio recording by Dead Can Dance featuring the original line-up of Brendan Perry (Vocals & Electric Guitar), Lisa Gerrard (Pearl Syncussion), Paul Erikson (Bass Guitar) and Simon Monroe (Drums).
Recorded in early 1982 by the Australian producer, Chris Thompson at Richmond Recorders, Melbourne, it captures the early Joy Division inspired wall of sound that became DCD’s sonic trademark in the early eighties.
The file is a high quality mp3 – 320kbps
