TO AND COULD LOVE.
>> THE MESSAGE.
FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW THE
STORY BEHIND THE ALBUM, TELL
THEM HOW EXODUS CAME TO BE.
STORY.
EXODUS WAS A COUSIN IN ENGLAND
AFTER THE ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT
ON MY FATHER AND MOTHER IS LIFE
THEY WENT ENGLAND AND SPENT ON
SOME OF THEIR IN AN APARTMENT
COMPLEX TOGETHER AND THIS IS
WHERE EXODUS WAS RECORDED.
.
KIND OF SPIRITUAL ALMOST
BIBLICAL ANY KIND OF EMOTIONAL
ELEMENT TO LOVE SONGS AS WELL
AS SONGS OF FAITH AND COURAGE.
I THINK THE EXPERIENCES THAT MY
FATHER AND MOTHER WENT THROUGH
DURING THE INCIDENT INSPIRED
EXODUS.
>> AND HER PARENTFOR THE
ANNIVERSARY, YOU HAVE BEEN
TELLS ABOUT THE PROJECTS YOU
HAVE UNDERTAKEN TO MARK THIS
>> WHEN
I HEARD WE WERE GETTING
READY TO CELEBRATE THE
ANNIVERSARY OF EXODUS , I ASKED
THAT IF I COULD HAVE THE ROCK
CHIPS FROM THE SESSION.
I WENT IN AND LISTENED TO THE
SESSIONS FROM A NEW PERSPECTIVE
FROM A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE
AND KIND OF REIMAGINED THE
ALBUM IN MY OWN POINT OF VIEW
AND WHAT I DISCOVERED WAS
INSTRUMENTATION THAT WERE NOT
USED IN THE EARLY VERSIONS OF
THE ALBUM .
OUTTAKES THAT WERE NOT USED.
I FOUND VERY INTERESTING THAT I
USEDIN THE VERSION OF THE
ALBUM WHICH IS A COMPANION
PIECE TO THE ORIGINAL EXODUS.
AND SO WE PUT THAT IN TH
POCKET AS PART OF THE
CELEBRATION OF THE ALBUM AND AS
A PART OF GIVING PEOPLE A
ON EXODUS.
>> THAT IS AWESOME.
HOW CAN PEOPLE GET THEIR HANDS
ON THESE NEW SIGHTS AND SOUNDS?
>> PEOPLE CAN GET THEIR HANDS

ASKING ABOUT YOUR OWN CAREER.
