''Rise Above'' is the 1992 solo full-length debut album by singer-songwriter Epic Soundtracks (stage name of Kevin Paul Godfrey), who had previously been known as the drummer/pianist with the bands Swell Maps, Jacobites, Crime & the City Solution and These Immortal Souls. Other musicians appearing on the album include Lee Ranaldo and Kim Gordon (Sonic Youth), J Mascis (Dinosaur Jr.), Martyn Casey (The Bad Seeds), Anthony Thistlethwaite (The Waterboys), Will Pepper (Thee Hypnotics) and Rowland S. Howard (The Birthday Party). This album followed a whole decade of insecurity regarding his own singing (his earlier release ''Popular Classical'' featured Robert Wyatt on vocals) and passionate record collecting.〔(Those Who the Gods Love... Epic Soundtracks by Nikki Sudden )〕 The latter is evident in typeface and colours on the cover of the album, as well as the lyrics to "Sad Song", alluding to The Beach Boys' album ''Pet Sounds'' and its song "Caroline, No", respectively. The album was re-released by Troubadour (Easy Action) on CD in November 2015, remastered, with new and extensive sleeve notes and with a bonus CD including work in progress and early versions of the songs on the album. Spanish label Mapache also issued the album on vinyl. ==Track listing== All tracks composed and arranged by Epic Soundtracks # "Fallen Down" # "Farmer's Daughter" # "Ruthless" # "Everybody Else is Wrong" # "I Feel Good" # "Big Apple Graveyard" # "I Don't Know" # "Meet Me on the Beach" # "Sad Song" # "She Sleeps Alone / Love Fucks You Up" # "Wild Situation" # "She Sleeps Alone" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rise Above (Epic Soundtracks album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
