Face Dancer ‘This World’ CANDY044

FACE DANCER This World CANDY044.jpgFacedancer, a Washington D.C. based creative powder keg. Originally released in 1979, their debut album ‘This World’ immediately turned heads with its unusual mixture of crushing, Led Zeppelin inspired hard rock, quirky lyrical themes and high octane Cheap Trick style power pop. This was an act that carried their talent around not in a spare suit case but in super sized shipping container.

True to form, Facedancer never fully received the commercial acclaim that their music certainly deserved. Despite valiant attempts by all on board, including notable support from various tastemakers and a committed local fan base, they never quite managed to haul themselves out of the starting gate. Despite this, however, the Facedancer legacy, with those in the know, still continues to endure and impress. Truly another in a long line of hidden hard rock classics.

24-bit remastering from original source tapes, 4,000 word story of the making of the album by Dave Reynolds, full band invlovement, previously unpublished photos, all spread out over a super 12 page full colour booklet.
