Barry 'The Fish' Melton, guitarist and co-founder of the legendary San

with renowned Parisian guitarist Stephan Missri, are pleased to announce
the release of "Revolution Down the Road" a bilingual French/English

bassist, Charles Jannic, and well-known French drummer Christophe Rossi,
former editor of the French drumming magazine, Batteur. The new album is

"This was truly a trans-Atlantic effort for me," says Barry 'The Fish'
Melton, who flew from San Francisco to Paris and back over the course of
three years to work on the project, much of which was recorded in the
Chennevieres commune of Val-de-Marne just outside of Paris. Says Melton,
"Much of my early work was influenced by Middle-Eastern music, which
becomes immediately apparent were you to see me with Country Joe in the
1967 movie, Monterey Pop." But Melton savored the opportunity to play
with a gifted guitarist like Stephan Missri, who was born in Algeria
when it was still part of France. As Melton says, "It presented us with
a unique opportunity to meld our styles across the hands of time into a
unified blend of contemporary sound."
The new Jamasutra album also includes the strong influence of Stephan
Missri's unique lyrics and vocal style, in both French and English,
which give the music a unique fluency. And Melton contributes to the
lyrical fabric of the album with a call to arms regarding the current
state of the world's ecosystem - in English - with an adaptation of the
traditional song, Shady Grove, exhorting the listener to take action to
save the planet (and provides the foundation for the album's title,
"Revolution Down the Road").
The supporting cast of the album includes a virtual who's who of French
neo-psychedelic music, including Eric Cougrand, Jean-Michel Laugier and
Alexandre Manconi, together with the unique and powerful post-production
mixing skills of Xavier Doremus. And those who obtain a physical copy of
the CD will be treated to the very special art of Yves Courson that
graces not only the album cover, but the disc itself.
If you've been longing for an album that brings the essence of
psychedelic music into the present-day, Jamasutra's "Revolution Down the
Road" recaptures the spirit of a magical time and brings it into the
present day.
