NJE Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 (edited) Whilst on one of my youtube sessions seeking out new music and generally wasting my life, I stumbled upon a new project that Pino is playing on. Its being put together by a guy called Simon Wood Harris and is so far called Unidentified Flying Project. He has got some amazing people playing on the tracks; Pino, Dave Weckl, Kipper Eldrige, Robbie McIntosh, Dominic Miller amongst others. There is one full song on youtube and a few 'making of' videos, but I am really liking the snippets I have heard, it sounds a bit like Dave Matthews to me (Jon Kenzie the singer has hints of Dave Matthews and Paul Carrack in his voice to me) and Pino is as classy as ever. http://youtu.be/G0ilQQjRbTg Edited November 28, 2013 by NJE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crag42 Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Loving this. .. Anyone know anymore about this? Would love an album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJE Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 Here is the website: http://simonwoodharrismusic.co.uk there are a few full songs on the music section via sound cloud. I am told there are ways of getting music downloaded from sound cloud, but not sure how to do it. I don't think there is any release due any time soon.

Dom in Dorset Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 (edited) Jeremy Stacey on Drums , nice guy, I went to his studio in London and he made us a very nice espresso. (not often I get to name drop so please forgive me. not as glammerous as it sounds I was there to remove a grand piano that he'd sold) Can't say for certain but it could be where that video was shot.

Japhet Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Robbie MacIntosh is just wonderful also. Saw him with Pino in his band around the time of his Emotional Bends album which Pino also played on. Happy memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumple Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Drummer mate just sent me this link to, nice find Here's the 'making of' video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFzDwdKVRak Decades ago, I used to go and see Kippers band One Nation quite a bit, mostly at the Marquee I think.

xilddx Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 It sounds very nice indeed. What gauge strings is Pino using? They look very light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakenewmanbass Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I know John (Kenzie) from his Salford days, I'm really glad to see him in that arena, he's a great talent... I love Jeremy Stacey's playing, I did a session in the summer with his equally brilliant brother Paul. Nice project, Pino beautifully understated.

chardbass Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Absolutely loving this. In fact I'm loving how much of this kind of music is so accessible these days- Soundcloud, YouTube and Facebook are throwing up some real gems. This, Brother Strut, Shuffler and Dirty Loops are all projects that could have normally passed me by but I'm grateful that they haven't.

All the best players in one room with no decent material to work off is what it comes off sounding like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamlunt Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I wanna hear the isolated bass tracks for There Is A Dream… I know you can hear the bass loud and clear anyway but I need to hear it alone, or maybe with the drums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scalpy Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Yeah, pino's great isn't he? Doing much better than I did as one of the many original bass players on this project! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Pepper Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Well, almost seven years to the day since this this thread was started and the single 'There Is A Dream'' has just been released today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solo4652 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Just jammed along to it. Sort of. Thought I could hear some echoes of Paul Young and Mick Hucknall in the singer's voice. For me, the track slightly ran out of puff and direction about 2/3rds way through. Pino lifted the middle instrumental with some nicely understated playing but, overall, I felt the song lacked sparkle/bounce/interest/hooks. That's just me though.

Yep, that was my feeling too - quite enjoyed it, but it sort of petered out a touch. I'd be interested in hearing some of the other tracks though.
