Bruce Dickinson: the re -edition of “Balls to Picasso” with unpublished
In 1994, after leaving the Iron Maiden for a period, before returning to formation in 1999, Bruce Dickinson released his second solo album, entitled “Balls to Picasso”. After more than thirty years, the singer announces a version of the album, which then returns “revisited and reinvented” with the title “More Balls to Picasso”. The re -edition of the 1994 album will be available from next July 25th.
Dickinson, who released the solo album “The Mandrake Project” last year, in a declaration taken from “Blabbermouth” said: “While mixing my whole repertoire in Dolby Atmos, I felt an unstoppable desire to revisit and reinvent the record. So add more ‘balls …’ was a love job. Of course, we enhanced guitars – ‘Swedish guitarist’ Philip Näslund – And we also added a beautiful work of Adasi Addesi in ‘Tears …’.
Comw reported, in the new edition, “Shoot All the Clowns” makes use of a wind section led by the Berklee College of Music, and the entire album benefits from the Brendan Duffey mix. In addition, “More Balls to Picasso” includes two unpublished songs recorded live in the studio, “Gods of War” and “Shoot all the clowns”. It will be available as a double splatter vinyl album and as a three panels CD digisleeve.
