The Cowsills - Global

Their elusive 1998 release, restored and remastered, on LP for the first time and on CD/Digital with three bonus tracks. Featuring guest appearances from Vicki Peterson (The Bangles, Continental Drifters), Berton Averre (The Knack), Peter Holsapple (The dB's, Continental Drifters), John Stamos, and more. Updated artwork features new liner notes from Brett Milano and Bob Cowsill. A missing pen. That's the secret reason why this wonderful album exists... That's just a teaser into how The Cowsills' Global (their first album of new material in nearly three decades) came to be. Yes, The Cowsills were a chart-topping family band whose story was the inspiration for television's The Partridge Family, but anyone who actually ventured past the hit singles realized the band had chops. Over the ensuing years, The Cowsills garnered a following of fans across the world, among them then and future musical colleagues. The story of Global includes not only the musical siblings, but also Dick Clark, Daryl Dragon (The Captain of Captain & Tennille), power-pop superstars, and renowned industry figures. A piece on Global for NBC-TV's Dateline would not be out of place... true crime and human interest! Global first appeared in 1998, but it was difficult to find. For those who did-it was a revelation of pure pop greatness. For those who missed it, it will be a new revelation now. With full cooperation from the band, Global is back worldwide. Restored and remastered. The original 11 tracks appear on LP for the first time.
