Ian McNabb And Ian Prowse Share A Unique Night Of Music At The 02 Academy.

In a city that has produced more than its fair share of music legends, song writers and iconic performers, perhaps two that stand out of the crowd in modern terms are Ian McNabb and Ian Prowse. Together with their respective bands, Cold Shoulder and Amsterdam, the pair have joined forces for one evening to create a show on September 28th that will be surely seen as one of the highlights of the year for fans of live music in Liverpool.

Ian McNabb, Head Like A Rock. 2013 Re-Mastered Edition.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * * *

It is unusual for a re-master of an album to add anything more to a listeners overall enjoyment than when they first purchased the original recording. It is extraordinary to feel more than moved by the new recording, so moved that the lyrics seem and get underneath the skin to the point where you question what you didn’t hear all those years ago. Ian McNabb’s re-mastering of his 1994 classic Head Like a Rock has such an effect and it is advisable to have someone there to hold onto when listening to this incredibly personal and touching recording.
