COFFEE IN NEW YORK & LET'S PLAY THE GOD GAME - ON SALE NOW!
COFFEE IN NEW YORK is the brand new album from the Korgis to be released primarily for the American market. With a luscious string laden version of the title track and a brand new version of Everybody's Got to Learn Sometime - again with a lovely string orchestra, we are excited to see if we can make some headway Stateside. The rest of the album draws from the back catalogue of The Korgis, Joe Matera and Al Steele. There will be some copies filtering onto the Store here as the cost of shipping from our record company in America is a little eye-watering!
LET'S PLAY THE GOD GAME is the latest all original album from Al Steele & Friends. As always Al is pushing the boundaries and asking the question: What if we are all living in a giant game and the Gods are merely having a laugh at our expense?! Like some unholy mixture of The Matrix and Sister Act, this rock laden album is peppered with luminaries. The main players are Danielle Nicholls as GOD, Elaine Gilmore as EVE, Lyndon Morgans as ADAM, Paul Smith as THE NEPHILIM, Lorna Darknell as DEMETER, and of course Al himself as the upstart god GORDON. As in The Life of Brian, we expect it to be banned and us all catapulted to instant infamy!

SINGLE: Matala Moon feat. Marley Davidson
It is the summer of '69 and Joni Mitchell is living in a cave, on a beach, on the Island of Crete. She has recently split from her lover, Graham Nash and finds consolation in the arms of a hippy called Carey.
They spend the summer drinking Raki at the Mermaid café, while she is writing her seminal album 'Blue'.
This album became the soundtrack to the lives of many people, Al Steele from The Korgis being one of them. Al and his family also spent a summer in Crete and on a pilgrimage to Matala beach, he was suddenly struck with an overwhelming sense of Deja Vue.
Meanwhile 5000 miles to the West, Joni has a vivid dream and is transported back 55 years in time - and still it seems like yesterday.
Marley Davidson, a pioneering musician from Scotland, brought a chord sequence and chorus melody to The Korgis. With the Joni story in mind, we set about writing the other part of the story over the original. The result was immediately both gorgeous and other-worldly... a term often used to describe Marley's music.
Here is Matala moon, our tribute to the original other-wordily pioneering musician, Joni Mitchell.
