It’s been an incredibly busy and productive year. 

I re-mastered 5 albums and recorded The LovePower album featuring John Fiddler, Pete Haycock, Charlie Morgan, Charley Charlesworth and me with guest bass from Pete Way. ... I’ve also recorded videos with LovePower, Vix, Damage Limitation and a 2 part interview about David Byron all viewable at damagecontrolmusic.com, robingeorge.co.uk plus You-Tube etc. Fantastic musicians have flown out to our Electric Mountain Studios in Spain and have recorded great music here. 

I also released Damage Control ‘Raw’...and the David Byron Band ‘Lost and Found’ album through Angel Air Records. I’ve just finished a radio and press tour of the Costa del Sol. 

Lows were losing a number of friends and musicians, which inspired the recording of ‘Damage Limitation’, a sharing album featuring over 50 artists from Rock, Soul and Blues, who’ve given their talent and time to help some very worthy causes.

More news on this project very soon.

The artwork is being completed now for Notorious ‘Radio Silence’ which is out very soon with Damage Control Music. The LovePower, Back to the Sun is scheduled for release in late spring. We’ve also got all these albums due for release this year:

 Life, Cocoon which features many un-released, unheard tracks written and played by great musicians and featuring Nick Tart ex Life and Diamond Head on lead vocals is out in April. It’s being released by Angel Air who are also putting out the first official release of Marshall Law’s Power Game in March, which I produced about 20 years ago.  

‘Dangerous Music’ which I’ve re-mastered and, features 1 extra track.

‘Early Daze’…22 tracks of unreleased material recorded for my 2^nd album.

Tracks co-written with David Byron (Uriah Heep), Daniel Boone, Pete Goalby (Trapeze, Uriah Heep)  John Wetton (Asia, Roxy Music), and more. Also featuring tracks with Pino Palladino (The Who etc.) and Charlie Morgan (Elton John Band) Some tracks were produced by Gus Dudgeon.

It also features my song ‘Red for Danger’ which Robert Plant included on his ‘Sixty Six to Timbuktu’ album. 

‘Bluesongs’ and ‘Crying Diamonds plus ‘Dangerous Music Live 85’ are scheduled for re-release. 

I’m re-mastering the original sessions for my first album ‘History’ featuring Pino Palladino , Dave Holland (Judas Priest), Mo Birch (Culture Club, Robert Plant), Pete Wright, Terry Rowley (Trapeze) and Mel Collins (King Crimson). 

I also have also produced and co-written 2 albums with Vix, former lead singer with 80’s chart band We’ve Got a Fuzzbox and we’re Gonna Use it mastered and ready to go.

Could this set a Record as the most Frantic Recording Session Ever?

Damage Limitation track credits

 The formula was simple – take one producer, one engineer and the power of love from sixty singers in a recording studio plus dozens more around the world who were there in spirit.

It could have been chaos.   Certainly it was the most frantic recording session ever, according to  Robannas studio in Birmingham, UK. But frantic or not, the result was the realization of a  dream for rock star Robin George and Debra Derryn, MD of DCM Records.

By the end of the five-hour session – and with a little help from showbiz friends it’s obvious that this is set to be one of the most exciting feel-good projects since Feed the World
Robin and Debbie arrived at the studio for an 11am start, chauffeured by TV Presenter Charlie George, photographer Fran George and Thomas Scott. 

Vix (Fuzzbox/The Kix) had arrived early and was joined by the DCM camera  crew who were there to film the day’s events: Lance Nordli, Renee Ginger (who had traveled from Spain) and Roy Cooke, from London.

Daniel Boone, who had also traveled from London that morning, was first  into the studio. It was an emotional moment for those watching as he and Robin (who describes Daniel as his mentor) met again for the first time in 20 years.

“We’ve got something of a mutual admiration society,” Daniel said later. “I love his guitar playing and he loves my singing”.Robin rushed Daniel into the studio to sing a co-written song ‘Another Lonely Night” and what a powerful, emotional vocal performance it was.

 Daniel was then ushered into the interview suite for what he described as “the best interview of my life” with Charlie George.

Kids from schools around Birmingham, and Essex who’d been expertly coached by Vix, arrived promptly, dressed in DCM signature black and red.    They sang a chorus from one of Robin’s songs, ‘World’ with spine tingling emotion which won them a round of applause from seasoned stars.

 The DCM crew was there to welcome journalists and photographers as well as Trudy Brown, representing No.1 Models' Agency.    
            

Geri Minelli, coordinator for Women in Music International had specially formed a choir from her members to support the ‘cause’. They were next in the studio singing Robin’s beautiful anthem, “LovePower and Peace.”     They were joined by Freya Copeland (Angie, the copper from Emmerdale) who’d journeyed from London, Vix and music writer Debbie Bennett,   Robin was there to direct and captured some great vocal performances; stunning stuff! Freya Copeland delighted everyone with her powerful and heartfelt rendition of “World.”

Everyone was delighted to welcome Jaki Graham, Tony Ormsby (her manager) and Natalie Graham. Jaki and Robin were delighted to meet again, having worked together in the past and Robin wasted no time in escorting Jaki into the studio.

The stars and Press in the control room and studio agreed to a man that her performance was breathtaking! Jaki was stunned to be interviewed by Charlie George who she’d last known as a baby. 

                                       
Andy Pyke (Marshall Law) was next in line for the interview suite and discussed his excitement over the forthcoming release on DCM of the new Marshall Law album, No Justice (produced by Robin and with tiny Charlie on backing vocals). He also emphasized how enthusiastic the whole band was to be involved with a project of this magnitude.

“That was great! Like talking to a friend!” Andy commented before joining the male soloists in the Studio,   Andy had done a great job of escorting the male pub party back in time for their recording and he was joined by Spike (who’d traveled from Newcastle), Daniel Boone and Robin for an outrageously great vocal session.
 

Pete Way did not disappoint, providing onlookers with a satisfyingly splendid Wild Man of Rock moment … nuff said!   Finally the whole gang joined in to belt out the choruses together. ‘Love the groove!’ Marshall Law exclaimed, “This is what our next album should be like … enough Metal!”

 Could be interesting!  

Rob of Robannas was an extremely genial host, putting everyone at ease with complimentary cuppas!

Messages of support and good wishes were received from all over the world ; from John Fiddler, Charlie Morgan, Pete Haycock, Pete Goalby, Ken Hensley, Nick Tart, Conny Bloom and Pete Thompson and they were certainly there in spirit but physically in America, Japan, Germany, Spain, Sweden or Australia.

Certainly the day, which ended on time to the minute despite the frantic pace of events, will remain with all of us who were there for a very long time to come.                                                                                       

The CD promises to be a showcase of all that is great and good in the music industry; talented, creative artists producing something real and original – and from the heart.
