from Oannes *

Το Kahsmir, Symphonic Led Zeppelin ήταν μια από τις πρώτες απόπειρες του Jaz Coleman στον “κλασικό” χώρο, υπό τον νέο του στα early ‘90s ρόλο του μαέστρου – ενορχηστρωτή – “κλασικού” συνθέτη. Το συνολικό αποτέλεσμα δεν ήταν ακριβώς θριαμβευτικό για τον mastermind των Killing Joke, όπως ούτε εκείνα των αποπειρών του με τη μουσική των Stones, των Floyd, των Doors ή των Nirvana.
Υπήρχαν όμως εξαιρέσεις, όπως το κομμάτι που ακούμε, βασισμένο στο ζεπελινικό ’Going To California’.

Kashmir, Symphonic Led Zeppelin was one of Jaz Coleman’s first attempts in the “classical” field, under his newfound, back in the early ’90s, role of conductor – arranger – “classical” composer. The overall result was not exactly triumphant for Killing Joke’s mastermind, nor was the one of his attempts with the music of Stones, Floyd, Doors or Nirvana.
There were exceptions though, such as the track we hear, based on Zeppelin’s ‘Going To California’.
