COMMENT : Give It Back is an album of newly recorded re-worked classic tracks
from their impressive catalogue now featuring Gavin Harrison
The Pineapple Thief are one of the leading lights of Europe s experimental
rock domain, led by post-progressive mastermind Bruce Soord and reinforced
by Gavin Harrison (King Crimson) on drums.
Give It Back is a new album featuring 12 new versions of earlier works
including songs taken from the albums Little Man , All The Wars , Tightly Unwound .
The band have completely re-recorded all of the tracks to complement brand new
Gavin Harrison drum parts and new song arrangements. The result of this process
is a unique release of reworked songs which showcases the evolution of The Pineapple
Thief. Bruce Soord explains the idea behind the album Gavin went through the entire
TPT back catalogue and picked out some songs he felt we could revisit. As soon as I
heard what Gavin was doing, it inspired me to completely rework the songs too. Gavin
would suggest adding new parts, chopping things around, bringing in extra verses and
I was completely open to all of it. I also closed the story lyrically on a lot of
the songs which I felt were left too open ended. It was a lot of fun to do, even if
it felt a little strange at times going back in time.
Gavin Harrison comments When I first started working with The Pineapple Thief I had
only played on the album Your Wilderness , so when the time came to play live, I
obviously had to approach quite a few songs I didn t know and hadn t played before.
Having spent some years in King Crimson (where this challenge was often presented to me),
Robert Fripp suggested that you should approach every song as if it were new regardless of
when it was written. So with the blessing of The Pineapple Thief, I developed my own take
on some of the earlier material. As the tours went by, I got curious about their huge back
catalogue and found myself listening through and applying the old song/new song' process
and imagining how I could (sometimes radically) rework them - initially just for the purposes
of finding other songs to play live. However, Bruce encouraged me to go as far out as I
wanted (including writing whole new sections) - after all, the original already existed -
so why not breathe new life into these earlier songs? This isn t a compilation album or
any kind of selected best of record - but rather the tunes that gave me inspiration to
rearrange, rework, rewire.
