Description

Roland Van Campenhout is a living legend, archetype for an almost extinct breed of artists - that of the sound magician, firmly rooted in blues and folk, at the same time open to pretty much all genres, whether they are called ethno, jazz or psychedelic. As a teenager - inspired by author Jack Kerouac's beatnik classic "On The Road" as a philosophy of life - he belonged to a skiffle combo. From the end of the 1960s, the man with the catweazle beard turned increasingly to the blues, played for a time in Rory Gallagher's band, and from 2000 there were collaborations with the much younger Belgian crossover interpreters such as Sioen. 

With Somewhere In The Mountains a new live album is released on 2LPs + DVD + booklet. The album offers on the first sound carrier recordings of the Kitchen Recording Series, which also includes a songbook; on LP 2 a concert recording from the theater Der Keller in Cologne. The DVD presents excerpts from various concerts of recent years in the same theater.
