Revolt Against An Age of Plenty

Der ehemalige BIG FLAME Bassist und Sänger ALAN BROWN unter dem Pseudonym THE GREAT LEAP FORWARD mit seinem neuen Soloalbum "Revolt Against An Age of Plenty". CD und Doppel-LP (mit Download Code) auf A Turntable Friend.

Vigorous, scintillating and life-affirming, this 13-song album sees Brown reach a milestone birthday, as explored in 'Can You Kanreki?’ - the Japanese concept of second childhood and re-birth. Then there are the trademark political and social vignettes, such as the title song of the album 'Revolt Against An Age Of Plenty' – railing against mass consumerism and media control; the wistful 'dEBRA 2021' (a re-working of the bIG*fLAME classic 'Debra'); and the ascerbic 'It's A Wonderful Lie' – a scathing attack on the lack of openness, honesty and humility of our political leaders.
