KIM MITCHELL – The Big Fantasize (2020)

Multi-platinum, Juno Award winning Rock icon and Canadian Songwriters Hall Of Fame inductee KIM MITCHELL is releasing today his highly anticipated new album, “The Big Fantasize” (El Mocambo Records), the first full-length recording since 2007.
Where its predecessor was a fiery and fierce rock album anchored by big riffs and bigger swagger, ”The Big Fantasize” is a more dynamic and musically expansive effort that perfectly encapsulates Mitchell’s prowess as a pure and compelling songwriter.
Ranging from the melodic rock perfection of ‘Best I Never Had’ (love this song) to calmer, elaborated, timeless midtempo rock&pop ballads, ”The Big Fantasize” is one of Mitchell’s most complete album to date.

And here’s a delicious pie for all MAX WEBSTER / Kim Mitchell fans, “The Party ; Unreleased Max”. This collection of previously unreleased tracks were boxed not so long ago, and features juicy stuff from this talented Canadian band.
Here we find some songs that didn’t make it into Max’s LPs. Fans would know “Deep Dive” from Kim Mitchell’s solo live album, but this Max’s original 1982 demo is completely different. Same melody, same words, but a vastly different arrangement. It’s like rock and roll bluegrass, fast as possible, and insanely good. It was likely deemed too different to be on the ‘Universal Juveniles’ LP, but there’s no doubt it’s awesome and the highlight here.
