Thread: Neal Morse tells the story of Joseph

    Neal Morse tells the story of Joseph

    Neal Morse has announced a new solo album, indeed two, with a 2-part concept album telling the story of Joseph from The Bible... I vaguely recall someone may have had a stab at doing that before?

    Very cool song that fills my ears with the kind of vibe I've been waiting for! <3 It's nice to see some new-ish faces in the "band" lineup.

    It's OK if musically generic. Although the Joseph story is somewhat interesting, I prefer the story of Chester's thing on Ruth.

    According to Neal's Facebook post, "The album however has everything a fan would look for: from long epics and odd time signatures, to very melodic and song-oriented tracks." So maybe there is more to whet the appetite of the prog fan.

    I guess I haven't listened to enough Morse solo work to really be able to tell one thing from another.

    Interesting that this is coming out through Frontiers instead of his own Radiant. Frontiers is THE label for "Melodic Rock" - I wonder if he gets any sort of direction from them.

    It probably just helps take the manufacturing and distribution off Radiant's shoulders.

    Way way back many centuries ago,
    Not long after the Bible began
    Jacob lived in the land of Canaan,
    A fine example of a family man.

    All these lyrics are burnt into my brain from childhood.

    We need more Bronze Age in our lives! Or is it Iron Age? I can't remember. No matter, we need more Bronze Age and Iron Age in our lives!

    Nice to see him branching out and tackling some new subject matter.
