Bio:
Beyond The Blue is an AOR band from the Netherlands.Only one album "Beyond The Blue" (1990).With the ever versatile Le Bolderdijk on Guitars, bass and keys and Emile Den Tex on all lead and backing vocals, this is pure AOR with smooth vocals and melody in the vein of classic TOTO and BOBBY KIMBALL.Even some hints of THE KOO and FAHRENEIT here.
Album:
And one day, out of the blue, finally the quite rare BEYOND THE BLUE self-titled 1990 has been reissued in a “Beyond The Blue [Expanded Edition]” including additional tracks.BEYOND THE BLUE was a Dutch project formed by session guitarist and songwriter Alex ‘Lex’ Bolderdijk and singer Emile Den Tex. They recorded ‘Beyond The Blue’ with the help of many friends / session musicians, all excellent players.Produced by Bolderdijk and Den Tex, they had the advice of renowned, talented producers Bolland & Bolland (Ferdi & Rob Bolland) whom also did backing vocals.The result is a stupendous album of Lite AOR with Westcoast touches and dynamic rock&pop beats plenty of melody and smooth vocals, all wrapped by a pristine crystal clear production. Think a cocktail of ’80s TOTO, The Koo, Fahrenheit, Street Talk, Deacon Street.For years very hard to find as the CD was distributed in a few European countries, this much sought after album by AOR collectors is finally available again and including as bonus tracks different versions from some of the best songs in the track list.Elegant, suit & tie AOR.
