It Bites – the Tall Ships / Map of the Past
It Bites – The Tall Ships / Map Of The Past (79:01, CD, Vinyl, Digital, InsideOut Music/Sony Music, 2008 / 2012) In den Mid 80ern und frühen 90ern gelang es It Bites als Schnittmenge aus Rock / Pop und einem gewissen Progressive Rock Einschlag ein gewisses Maß an Aufmerksamkeit zu erreichen. Einen guten Überblick über deren damalige Live-Aktivitäten bietet die an dieser Stelle vorgestellte Box „Live in London„, die mittlerweile leider nur noch zu recht satten Preisen erhältlich ist. Der Restart bzw. die Wiederbelebung von It Bites ohne deren ehemaligen Sänger / Gitarristen Francis Dunnery begann Ende der 2000er Jahre ursprünglich nur als Liveband. Doch nachdem man mit John Mitchell einen durchaus veritablen neuen Frontmann gefunden hatte, wollte man sich ebenfalls wieder ins Studio wagen. Leider stand dafür Bassist Dick Nolan nicht mehr zur Verfügung, so dass man das 2008er Album „The Tall Ships“ als Trio mit John Mitchell (Gesang, Gitarre, Bass), John Beck (Keyboards, Gesang) undBob Dalton (Schlagzeug) einspielte. Vier Jahr später folgte der Nachfolger „Map Of The Past“ mitLee Pomeroy als neuen Bassisten. Beide Alben liegen nun als Reissue in remastertem Format mit jeweils zwei Bonustracks (Material der Special Editions bzw. Single B-Seiten: ‚These Words‘, ‚When I Fall‘, ‚Lighthouse‘, ‚Come On‘) vor. Weiterhin sind beide Ausgaben erstmals auch im Vinylformat erhältlich. Zwar versuchte man auf beiden Alben in gewissem Maße die Tradition von It Bites wiederzubeleben, doch klingt vieles eher nach Kino, dem Bandprojekt, bei dem sowohl John Mitchell, als auch John Beck beteiligt sind und waren, sowie dem einige Jahre später folgenden Soloprojekt Lonely Robot von John Mitchell. -
