Van Der Graaf Generator - BBC録音アルバム |
Van Der Graaf Generator のイギリスBBCでの録音ものがダブルCDとしてリリースされた。アルバム・タイトルは "After the Flood"だ。 1968-1977 年に録音されている。VdGG の良く知られた曲の他、その時点で未発表の 5 曲が収録されている。マスタリングは 2015年にPaschal Byrne によって行われた。
Peter Hammill 曰く、 "I think our music has stood the test of time because we always made the music we were driven to make without paying any attention to what anyone else was doing. We certainly didn't write music with an eye on what might or might not be successful, even though this was a recipe for absolute commercial disaster. We were very lucky to have maintained such a loyal audience. Everything we have ever done has been true and loyal to some bizarre Van Der Graaf ethos. That's the key to our longevity in my opinion." (-「他人がどのような音楽をやっていたかにはまったく注意を払っていなかった」 「成功するかどうかはまったく考えないで曲作りをした。それがビジネス的には絶対的な悲劇に終わることは知っていたが。」「長い間ずっとつきあって聴いてくれたオーディエンスのおかげ。」「すべてやったことはVdGGの風変りな精神に忠実であった。」)
