Product Description

'A Distant Different Past' is the second solo album by Dale Nickey. It is a collection of previously unrelased studio recordings spanning 31 years of record making. More than just a musical anthology, 'A Distant Different Past' is a collection of musical short stories documenting Nickey's artistic and personal evolution. It's a journey that starts with his last December 2006 recording direct to digital and takes us back in time to his first session with singer Adie Grey in a 4 track reel to reel studio in October 1975. Along the way, Nickey visits different styles, instruments, studios, and collaborators. Among the musical guests are Adie Grey, Dominic Bakewell (Berlin), David Waterbury (Spirit, The Boxtops), Rick Vartian (The Puddlejumpers) and Producer Larry Dean Embry. The common threads running through this collection are Acoustic instrumentation (mostly) and Dale's unique, lyrical approach to songwriting and production. It's safe to say that this charming, unique and offbeat collection of curios is quite unlike any other release by an independent artist this year. Musicians: Dale Nickey - Vocals, Guitars, Basses, Piano, Keyboards, Accordian, Mandolin, Irish Bouzouki, Harmonica, Drums and Percussion. Adie Grey - Vocals and Dulcimer on 'Reynardine' Dominic Bakewell - Guitar, Acoustic Fretless Bass and Drum Programming on 'Stained Glass' and 'Mandolin Sprint' David Waterbury - Tamborine and Electronic Percussion on 'Midnight Loiterer' and 'Woman With The Golden Rings' Rick Vartian - Backing Vocals, Mini-Moog, String Synth, Mandolin, Tamborine and Triangle on 'Oil And Water' and 'Looking Glass' Producers: Larry Dean Embry, Dale Nickey, Dominic Bakewell, Rick Vartian, Lorenz Perner Engineers: Larry Dean Embry, David Waterbury, Dominic Bakewell, Rick Vartian, Lorenz Perner, Dale Nickey Recorded At: 38 Fresh Studios (Hollywood), Catrancher Studios (Hollywood), Creative Productions (Northridge Ca.), Waterbury Studios (NoHo Ca.), Rudy's Garage (NoHo Ca.), Thornhill Studios (Chatsworth Ca.), The Farm (Van Nuys), The Hidden Place (Van Nuys)....addional editing done at Rosewood Court (Thousand Oaks) Remastered by David at In Fidelity Recorders (Van Nuys)
