Phil Manzanera Returns To the Karl Marx
From www.manzanera.com
PHIL MANZANERA AND JACK BRUCE PLAY CONCERT IN CUBA – 27 February, Karl Marx theatre
Phil Manzanera returns to the city where he first began learning the guitar, aged 6 years old, back in 1957. Phil will be playing in concert with his longtime friend, Augusto Enriquez, the celebrated Cuban singer. Phil is also delighted to announce that Jack Bruce, the legendary bassist and singer from Cream, will be appearing with him at this not-to-be-missed very special concert.
The concert will take place on 27 February at Havana’s famous Karl Marx theatre, as part of the annual Habanos Festival. It’s a return visit for Phil, as he last played this venue in 1992 and recorded there the first ever multitrack live album in Cuba with Augusto Enriquez’s band, Moncada. The album, ‘Manzanera Moncada Live at the Karl Marx,’ was released on Manzanera’s label, Expression Records (www.youtube.co/watch?v+BZ6e7sdBntM). Phil is greatly looking forward to playing alongside the great Jack Bruce: they have previously performed together at the Guitar Legends Festival in Seville in 1991 (www.youtube.com/watch?v+MZDmj7Kuw70) and at the San Remo Music Festival.

Sheer Poetry
NTH Entities…..Phil Manzanera does music/Anna leDoes Poetry’ : release date: 30 April 2012
from www.manzanera.com
Phil Manzanera releases ‘Nth Entities’ on 30 April 2012 on Expression Records. This startingly beautiful album is a collaboration with poet, Anna LeDoes Poetry. It is a collection of nine poems set to original music composed by Manzanera, and has four bonus tracks. The project was seeded two years ago when Phil and Anna had a chance encounter at Gavin Martin’s ‘Talking Music Revolutions: Jimi Hendrix’ at a pub in Hoxton. It was Charles Shaar Murray, music writer and Jimi’s biographer, who having been blown away by Anna’s ‘Jimi’ poem, turned to Phil, and said….’you should set that to music’

To kick off the 40th Anniversary of Roxy Music's first album/single/tour/TV etc VirginEMI plan to release a box set containing the entire studio recordings of Roxy Music.
Each of Roxy Music's 8 studio albums will be augmented by bonus tracks all pertaining to the individual albums that were part of the same sessions and released at the same time on singles. For example 'Country Life' will have the original 10 tracks with the addition of the rare USA single mix of 'The Thrill Of It All' and its b-side 'Your Application's Failed' and the 'Siren' album will have the original 9 tracks as per the original release but with the single version of 'Both Ends Burning' and its b-side 'For Your Pleasure (Live)' forming part of the bonus tracks.
The overall aim of the track list for the box set is to gather together every song and every version of the songs officially released by the band during the life of Roxy as a recording band. Some of the tracks have never been released on CD before like the USA 7" version of 'Do The Strand' and the UK 7" edit for 'Take A Chance With Me' to name a few.
