Greg Freeman - I Looked Out - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

UK collection. The popularity of the Zombies has soared over the last few years, and is growing since their Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction in 2019. After disbanding before their seminal Odessey & Oracle album was released, Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone have reincarnated the band with a new touring line-up, while original bass-player Chris White has continued his career as a songwriter and producer. The Chris White Experience showcases some of that material. This fourth volume of The Chris White Experience is the first to delve into his career as a producer. Containing another 12 brilliant recordings from Chris' work with Argent, Diana Dors, singles from Marti Caine, Colin Blunstone, Duffy Power and many more. The recordings were made at some of London's most celebrated studios; CBS, Roundhouse, Abbey Road, Olympic, and Mountain Studios in Montreux amongst them. The songs are made up from unreleased, rare, and long- deleted recordings. Songs are written by Russ Ballard, Leon Russell, Richard Myhill, Roger Cotton, and Chris White. Volume Four spans songs produced between 1969-2006, showcasing the longevity of Chris White's career between the dissolution of the original Zombies up to the current day. Volumes One, Two and Three are also available now, and will be followed by a number of further albums showcasing unreleased sessions and songs from over the last 50 years.

Greg Freeman thrives on finding emotional catharsis and present-day resonance in the eccentric ugliness of the past. His songs all have a palpable sense of place thanks to his urgent delivery and evocative lyricism, which mines history for character-driven tales of violence, loss, and epiphany. On his sophomore LP Burnover, out August 22 via Canvasback Music/Transgressive Records, the Maryland-born, Burlington, Vermont-based artist uses the complicated backdrop of the Northeast to sing of grief, alienation, and the clarity that comes from opening up yourself to love. Explosive, unsettling, and undeniable, the 10 tracks here meld energetic indie rock with an ambling twang. It's Freeman's most adventurous and personal yet, cementing him as a singular songwriting talent.

Greg Freeman was barely done making his breakthrough album, Burnover, which was released to wide critical praise and landed in The New York Times Best Albums of 2025 list and received the coveted 'Best New Album' distinction from Pitchfork, when he started writing his new record All Set The Bone. On All Set The Bone, he embraces friction instead of refusing it, using scant rehearsal times and urgent, self-appointed deadlines, which was finished quickly, in a real Hollywood studio with one of rock's best modern architects, John Congleton.
