Randy George

Morse, Portnoy and George. Virtuosity, talent and genious could easily describe the career of these three icons of
progressive rock so, ¿How is it that these musicians have reached the peak of the genre? The answer couldn’t be more obvious when we have the opportunity to witness all their talent combined this october 5, when they play before thier mexican fans, anxious for their skill and presence.

There is no doubt about the quality of these musicians and so, the occasion requieres to make a retrospective of each one of them, as successful as exciting, crossing the boundaries of the very same genre, always evolving and struggling with the contemporary musical industry, as far away from the mainstream as it could be.

Let’s start with Randy George, multi-instrumentalist and constant collaborator of Neal Morse.

 With an outstanding career and being the bass guitar his instrument of predilection. George has been present in numerous Morse projects and with Portnoy in the equation, the threesome has given a lot to talk about with their enormous  collaborations, truly remarkable works of progessive rock in recent times.

Transatlantic and Spock’s Beard have been some of the projects were George has assisted Morse, but beside that, Randy has also established a solid solo career thanks to his undeniable musical quality. With Wil Henderson and Dan Lile, George started Ajalon in 1994, producing up to three albums, the last one in 2009, wich recieved rave reviews from critics.

His passion for music has driven him to produce some material on his own, deploying all his talent in instumental Works worth of recognition. In this same year, George has revealed his second álbum, “Action Reaction”, wich counts with the collaboration of his eternal friend, Neal Morse. In this last project, George confesses that his past can be reflected through all the record and not necessarly where he stands today as an artist and as human being, that’s beacuse the recording process of it took several years, actually.

Have been worked with other icons from the progessive scene as Jordan Rudess, Adrian Belew, Steve Hackett and Rick Wakeman, leaves no doubt that George must be considered a heavyweight of the genre in it’s most recent times
