JEFF SCOTT SOTO – Cover 2 Cover [2-CD Iconic Productions Ltd release]
It’s hard to find a current rock musician with a body of work as large as veteran JEFF SCOTT SOTO, with over 60 albums under his belt while participating in Sons Of Apollo, Talisman, Soto, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, WET, just to name a few.
His official albums are pretty easy to find, however the incredibly versatile singer has recorded on hundreds of albums as guest, working demos, collaborations, etc, and performing different styles & genres with ease.
Many of you have been requesting Jeff’s rare recordings / releases: now we have here “Cover 2 Cover“, as its title makes clear, a mammoth 2-CD collection of Jeff Scott Soto doing covers of classic – and not so – rock n’ roll songs.
This Limited Edition (out of print and hard to find) made by Iconic Productions is in top quality mastering / packaging. While some tracks are present on the ‘B-sides’ album posted at 0dayrox, many others are very rare.
Even a couple are unreleased, exclusive to his ‘Cover 2 Cover’, like ‘Edge Of The Blade’, a cover by Jeff’s band Human Clay recorded for a Brazilian Journey Tribute that due to many problems with the record label this is still an “unreleased album”.
The cover here range from Journey, Europe and Van Halen to Madonna & Prince. Of coursae there’s Queen songs, Deep Purple, Rainbow, but also Seal, Gary Wright, Alphaville and more.
Also we find another demo from an unreleased track recorded for the band called Slam with George Bernhardt.
Awesome versions by Jeff
