AOR TREASURES - The Japan Bonus
The japanese market always has been lucky to get extra songs in local album editions.
An injustice to the rest of the planet, since many times these are really good bonus tracks, but we can't afford the expensive import prices.
I have compiled some of these pearls, some recent, some very hard to find, such as the MASTEDON song.
ERIC RUSSELL has released his 'Personal' album in Japan only, 1993.
The CD was reissued in Europe two years after, under his real name; OLIVIER CONSTANTIN, but this great song (he's best in my opinion) was replaced by other. That's why it's present here: Japan only.
Various bitrates, all above 192 Kbps, mostly @ 320.
Artwork included.
01 - Seventh Key - Storm Rages On
(The Raging Fire bonus) 2004
02 - FM - Hurt Is Where The Heart Is
(Tough It Out bonus) 1989
03 - Steelhouse Lane - If Love Should Go
(Slaves Of The New World bonus) 1999
04 - Heart - Cruel Tears
(Brigade bonus) 1990
05 - James Labrie - Understand
(Elements Of Persuasion bonus) 2005
06 - Jimi Jamison - Streets Of Heaven
(Crossroads Moment bonus) 2009
07 - House Of Lords - Gone
(World Upside Down bonus) 2006
08 - Sunstorm - Standing The Fire
(House Of Dreams bonus) 2009
09 - Eric Russell - Someday Somehow
(Personal - Japan release only) 1993
10 - Metropolis - Love And Desire
(The Power Of The Night bonus) 2000
11 - Ransom - I Can't Stay Away
(Trouble In Paradise bonus) 1998
12 - Casanova - Shine

MARCEL JACOB
January 30, 1964 - July 21, 2009 (R.I.P.)
I was listening TALISMAN (Marcel's really own baby) albums a lot since the sad news, and found in my archives the only video clip they've done (from 'Genesis' album) [thanx for the info Simon ~ read Comments] : "Mystery".
One of their best songs.
Keep this video.

LAST AUTUMN'S DREAM - Saturn Skyline (2007)
IMHO this is the best L A D album ever. Even better than the debut.
This time the guys have listened the fans and the production is TOP class.
The songs are a perfect blend of power and harmony.

One of the albums of the year without a doubt.
