Direct to

Description

Digitally re-mastered edition of this 1978 release by the Canadian Progressive Rock group FM. The band began life in 1976 with Cameron Hawkins (synthesizers, bass, vocals) and Nash the Slash (electric violin, mandolin, vocals) coming together as a duo. By March 1977, FM became a trio with the addition of Martin Dellar on drums. By the end of the year, Nash the Slash had been replaced by Ben Mink on electric violin and mandolin in time for the sessions for Direct to Disc, an album that featured one track per side and was recorded directly to a master disc from which records were pressed, rather than from a master tape. This Esoteric Recordings release is the first time Direct to Disc has been issued in Europe and has been newly re-mastered and includes an illustrated booklet and a new essay.
