\"\"<\/a>Par les Dieux des Sept Enfers ! Le Saint Graal des adorateurs du n\u00e9o-progressif est sorti en vinyle. La merveille des merveilles, l’accomplissement d’une vie d’artiste, un album que j’ai d\u00e9couvert par hasard, alors que je ne connaissais m\u00eame pas le groupe… Je crois que c’est en passant \u00e0 la Fnac – \u00e0 l’\u00e9poque ils avaient encore du choix et bon go\u00fbt – que je tombais sur une pochette intrigante, un homme en costume noir, chevauchant un bicycle rudge sur fond ciel tourment\u00e9. The Visitor<\/a> du groupe Arena.<\/p>\n

L’\u00e9coute du premier morceaux me convainc de me jeter sur la merveille. Clive Nolan au sommet de son art, Paul Wrightson, une voix et une pr\u00e9sence extraordinaire, un petit jeune guitariste qui ira loin, John Mitchell, l’ancien bassiste de IQ, John Jowitt et le premier batteur de Marillion, Mick Pointer, allaient donner naissance au chef d’oeuvre du n\u00e9o-progressif, un album qui aujourd’hui encore fait r\u00e9f\u00e9rence et que le groupe a eu la belle id\u00e9e de remast\u00e9riser et de r\u00e9\u00e9diter en vinyle.<\/p>\n

Juste apr\u00e8s la sortie du CD, le groupe se produisait \u00e0 la Laiterie \u00e0 Strasbourg, ville dans laquelle je venais \u00e0 peine d\u2019emm\u00e9nager. Une salle comble, une audience que le groupe ne retrouvera plus jamais j’en ai peur, un concert extraordinaire au d\u00e9but duquel, Paul remontait la foule avec son micro pour grimper sur sc\u00e8ne, quel frisson, quelle prestance !<\/p>\n

Une \u00e9dition vinyle 180 grammes, deux CDs dont un disque bonus avec des versions acoustiques et live, un poster d\u00e9dicac\u00e9 par les cinq musiciens, les fans de cet album vont adorer.<\/p>\n

Arena n’a jamais fait mieux que cet album h\u00e9las et ne le fera sans doute jamais plus.<\/p>\n

Voila, je pense que j’ai bascul\u00e9 du c\u00f4t\u00e9 obscur des #VCN (vieux cons nostalgiques), cette secte affligeante des #CMA (c’\u00e9tait mieux avant), ces aigris plein de tunes qui n’\u00e9coutent que les groupes de plus de vingt ans d’age sous pr\u00e9texte que les jeunes sont des petits cons qui ne savent pas jouer du rock et qui mettent de l’\u00e9lectro partout. Une esp\u00e8ce en voie d’augmentation comme la moyenne d’age des amateurs de prog. Pourtant je les d\u00e9teste ces djihadistes de la musique, qui se tueraient pour une bouse de Yes ou un in\u00e9dit inaudible de Pink Floyd et qui ne sont pas foutus d’\u00e9couter une nouveaut\u00e9.<\/p>\n

Apr\u00e8s la r\u00e9\u00e9dition de Picture<\/a> de Kino en vinyle, la r\u00e9\u00e9dition de The Visitor<\/a> de Arena en vile, voici qu’arrive le coffret vinyle de Brave<\/a> de Marillion, cinq galettes anthracites, la version remix de Steven Wilson et le live \u00e0 la Cigale. Je me vautre dans la fange de la nostalgie et surtout je m’offre des \u00e9ditions qu’\u00e0 l’\u00e9poque je n’osais m\u00eame pas imaginer en r\u00eave. Et je suis bien puni, car sinc\u00e8rement, le master du Marillion n’est pas terrible, sans parler du pressage assez m\u00e9diocre.<\/p>\n

\u00c9trangement, Picture et Brave ne furent pas forc\u00e9ment des coups de c\u0153ur \u00e0 leur sortie, mais au fil des ann\u00e9es, \u00e0 force d’\u00e9coutes, ils sont devenus les albums que j\u2019emmenerais forc\u00e9ment sur une \u00eele d\u00e9serte avec un bon millier d’autres.<\/p>\n

Le cas de Brave rel\u00e8ve de la psychiatrie, j’ai compt\u00e9. Il existe, \u00e0 la maison, cinq \u00e9ditions diff\u00e9rentes de cet album, le CD studio, le Making of Brave, le Brave life, le film Brave, et ce coffret vinyle. N’est-ce pas trop docteur ?<\/p>\n

Promis, pour ne pas sombrer totalement dans le #VCM et le #CMA, je commanderai prochainement plein de nouveaut\u00e9, j’ai commenc\u00e9 ce weekend par le vinyle Negative Toe de Camembert<\/a>, c’est bien non ?<\/p>\n

ps : ce billet, aussi inutile que les autres, sert principalement \u00e0 r\u00e9f\u00e9rencer sur Google des chroniques post\u00e9es sur le site Neoprog.eu, augmentant l’e r\u00e9putation du webzine \u00e0 petit prix.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
