Product Overview
Matt Berry - The Blue Elephant (CD) In his tenth year with Acid Jazz, the ever-prolific Matt Berry has crafted a psych masterpiece. Once again proving his artistic progression and ambition knows no bounds. Recorded during the summer of 2020, The Blue Elephant is testament to MattÙs exceptional musicianship, production skills and songwriting prowess with every instrument played by Matt including, guitars, bass, a variety of keyboards and synthesizers (piano, Wurlitzer, mellotron, Moog, Hammond, Vox and Farfisa organs), with the exception of drums Ó supplied by Craig Blundell, on arguably his best album to date. This music soundtracks an album that explores themes surrounding todayÙs close scrutiny in all its bewildering, objectifying and unnerving experiences. Very much a conceptual and, therefore, continuous long-player, the albumÙs infectious grooves come to the fore on standout tracks ØSummer SunÙ, heavy-psych instrumental ØInvisibleÙ, the three-part ØBlues Inside MeÙ and which encompasses a psych journey through a late Ø60s and early glam filter.
