“Give Us Barabbas” (Brownhouse, 2004) is a collection of material spanning the best part of 20 years. Recorded both as Chris Goss and Masters Of Reality, the new album focuses more on the acoustic and psychedelic side of Chris’s output. Most of the songs have never been previously released and in a way stand as unpolished gems waiting to be discovered.
Highlights include “The Desert Song” recorded with legendary line-up comprising of Googe (Bass) and Ginger Baker (drums). ‘Two of the best musicians I have ever worked with’ says Chris (and what an informed opinion his is). And “Brownhouse on a green road” a song Chris has worked on and off for years with drummer extraordinaire Vic Indrizzo (now in Macy Gray, Liz Phair and Willie Nelson bands).

‘Above all, it is a happy occasion to release all these songs together’ says Chris. ‘I can’t help but feel blessed with the quality of musicians I have been working with’. And “Give Us Barabbas” is also a celebration of these talents.
