Karriere-Anthologie für verstorbenen Bad-Seeds-Pianisten Conway Savage angekündigt

Eine die gesamte Karriere umspannende Anthologie mit Aufnahmen von Conway Savage, dem verstorbenen Pianisten von Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, wurde für eine Veröffentlichung am 17. Juli angekündigt. Die unter dem Titel 'Too Dark To See: Solo & Collaborative Recordings 1992-2010' erscheinende Sammlung wurde unter Mitwirkung seines Bandkollegen Mick Harvey zusammengestellt und umfasst 24 Titel aus Savages Solo- und Gemeinschaftsprojekten.

Conway Savage trat Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds im Jahr 1990 bei und wirkte bis zu seinem Tod im Jahr 2018 im Alter von 58 Jahren an einem Hirntumor an jedem Album mit, mit Ausnahme von 'Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!'. Die neue Anthologie, die über Impressed Recordings erscheint, enthält den Titel 'Too Dark to See' von seiner Solo-EP aus dem Jahr 1993 sowie Interpretationen von Volksliedern wie 'Fair & Tender Ladies' und 'You Did as You Were Told to Do'. Weitere Höhepunkte aus seinen Soloalben 'Nothing Broken' und 'Wrong Man's Hands' sind in der vollständigen 24-Song-Tracklist enthalten: 'Fair & Tender Ladies', '1000 Days', 'You Did as You Were Told to Do', 'Trail of Broken Hearts', 'I Trust You Had a Good Time', 'The Cross', 'Marlo', 'Sisters & Brothers', 'Old Soul with a New Hole', 'Tanist', 'These Are the Waves', 'Nothing Broken', 'Strings of the Earth & Air', 'Cruel Trick', 'Night Life', 'Only Ghosts', 'Just One of Those Things', 'Quickie for Ducky', 'The Saint of Shitty Little Rooms', 'Too Dark to See', 'Don’t Plan on Leaving Town', 'Say It Ain’t So', 'Crumbling World' und 'Tonight'. Mick Harvey, ein langjähriges Mitglied der Bad Seeds, schlug das Projekt Impressed Recordings vor. Nach Savages Tod beschrieb ihn die Band als 'den anarchischen Faden, der sich durch die Live-Auftritte der Band zog' und lobte seine 'hohe und süße', von Soul durchdrungene Stimme. Nick Cave erinnerte sich an einen ergreifenden Moment: 'In einer betrunkenen Nacht, um vier Uhr morgens, in einer Hotelbar in Köln, setzte sich Conway ans Klavier und sang uns „Streets of Laredo“ vor... Leb wohl Conway, es blieb kein Auge trocken.' Im vergangenen September ehrte ein Festival im irischen Dundalk Savages Leben mit Auftritten von Freunden und Bandkollegen.
