Idag den 30:e januari skulle basisten och låtskrivaren Marcel Jacob fyllt 60 år och i samband med detta släpper nu de kvarvarande medlemmarna i Talisman låten ”Save Our Love”. Så här går att läsa i ett pressmeddelande:

On January 30, 2024, Marcel Jacob would have turned 60. We want to shed light on the problem of mental health issues. Too many people are leaving their loved ones and friends far too early.

Marcel Jacob founded the band Talisman in 1989 after playing with John Norum, Yngwie Malmsteen and early Europe. Talisman had a major hit with the song ”I’ll Be Waiting” and released several studio and live albums. Unfortunately, Marcel took his own life on July 21, 2009.

The remaining members of Talisman, Jeff Scott Soto (vocals), and Pontus Norgren (guitars), have written the song ”Save Our Love” as a tribute and in memory of Marcel Jacob and the music they created together. Talisman’s drummer, Jaime Borger, also plays on the song, and it features guest appearances by Mic Michaeli from Europe on keyboards, Johan Niemann (Evergrey) on bass and BJ (SOTO) on backing vocals. The song will be released on all digital platforms on January 30th.
