The Chameleons - Why Call It Anything - Live In Manchester - DOUBLE CD

This is a re-issue of The Chameleons fourth studio album, an album that the majority of fans missed out on when originally released in 2001. Produced by David M Allen (Strange Times), it was the band’s first full studio recordings in more than fifteen years.

Featuring the rich guitars and powerful vocals associated with previous Chameleons albums; WCIA is enriched by members solo pursuits throughout the 1990’s, with some of the songs having an acoustic, almost folky feel. But fans of The Chameleons rockier side won’t be disappointed with tracks such as Shades and Indiana packing an almighty punch.

Disc Two features The Chameleons live in concert at Manchester Academy, a sold out hometown show recorded in 2001, during the band’s brief reunion. The cd features live renditions of various WCIA tracks, including 'Anyone Alive', 'Shades', and 'Dangerous Land'. Tracks that sound even more impressive after months of touring. No Chameleons live cd would be complete without the classics, and this is no exception, with 'Swamp Thing', 'Second Skin', 'A Person Isn’t Safe' and others featuring here. Professionally recorded and mixed, with an unmistakeable hometown atmosphere, this is the definitive Chameleons live album.
