Description

Over the years I've collected a lot of rarities of Kevin Gilbert's work and among that are 13 Toy Matinee tracks of varying quality. I've included almost the full concert from the Roxy in Los Angeles (still missing 3 tracks..). The CD rip is of the Special Edition released in 2001 with 5 bonus tracks.



Enjoy, this is one of the greats!



PS If you like this please consider buying it :)The Toy Matinee saga began in Los Angeles in the late Eighties. Following an exhausting five-year stint composing, arranging and producing for Madonna, Bryan Ferry, Julian Lennon and others, keyboardist Patrick Leonard decided to form a band. Recruiting guitarist Tim Pierce and bassist Guy Pratt, Leonard began writing songs that reflected his love of British pop, progressive rock and Seventies-style jazz fusion. During this gestation period, Leonard was asked to judge a nationwide battle-of-the-bands sponsored by Yamaha. During this competition, Leonard saw Kevin Gilbert performing in a postmodernist rock band named Giraffe. (The group won the competition.)

Discovering a shared passion for Sixties pop and conceptual rock, Leonard and Gilbert became fervent songwriting collaborators. Drummer Brian McLeod (Sheryl Crow) is hired to complete the lineup and Toy Matinee, the band, is officially born.



Upon its original release, the album was embraced by rock radio programmers that took an immediate shine to the frothy opening track, "Last Plane Out." But the single only hinted at Toy Matinee's capabilities. Album tracks like "Queen of Misery," "The Ballad of Jenny Ledge" and "There Was A Little Boy" were compelling exercises in free-thinking pop and superbly conceived rock 'n' roll.



With Kevin Gilbert's untimely passing, Toy Matinee was temporarily suspended. And though Leonard vows to carry on the band's legacy, this reissue pays eloquent tribute to the talented and lamented Mr. Gilbert. As Leonard himself effused in 1990: "No strings ... no expectations ... we had the opportunity to do an album we cared about, simply because we cared about it."



In a day when pop music is all too obvious, Toy Matinee Special Edition is an earnest record with genuine mystique. Enjoy ...
