Cherry Red Records Piano

• Mark Springer made his name as keyboard player with early 80s cult favourites Rip, Rig & Panic, featuring Neneh Cherry and her father, the legendary jazz trumpeter Don Cherry.
• Piano was Mark’s first solo album, recorded shortly after Rip, Rig & Panic disbanded and issued on independent label Illuminated in 1984. It has never officially been available on CD – until now!
• Recorded at Marcus Music on a Steinway model D concert grand piano, Piano demonstrated Mark’s unique compositional skills and musical virtuosity.
• This long-overdue reissue adds six bonus tracks which complement the mood of the parent LP.
• Rip, Rig & Panic enjoy a significant following in Japan, where this CD is predicted to be extremely well received.
• Piano is a joint venture between Mark’s label Exit and Cherry Red.
