If any of you like something different and unusual to listen to and can get your hands on copy of this at a sensible price then don't hesitate. I came across it as the first track, "Moonlight on spring River", is on the Dali 3 CD, (a compilation CD that comes with speakers). The album is a mix of traditional Chinese Orchestra, Chinese folk, Jazz, and Western Orchestra, with the the famous Zhoa Cong fronting on the Pipa. The album is of superb quality and of an extremely high recording standard being produced by Hans Nielsen from Denmark, a highly respected engineer and producer. Sonically it is a really wonderful album, with massive dynamics, detail and depth you only get on a few special records.
I have been searching for a copy for over a year that was not extortionately priced and found a new copy through a specialist Chinese record dealer in Canada, I parted with my money 8 weeks ago and it turned up today in an extremely strong oversize box, and very well protected inside and out. It was sent direct from China, so presumably they lease with their supplier and send records direct.
If you are interested this is where I sourced it https://malmusic.com/index.php?subca...1089205bdca2d3
If you want a listen before you go and hunt one out it is on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/album/24Zpe...SZuEC2Xgnt7GsA but I would recommend it on Vinyl or CD to hear it at its best. Alternatively CD SQ on Qobuz https://open.qobuz.com/album/fnab30t1px5wb, it is also available on TIDAL.

Europe - War of Kings
The last but one offering from the Swedish rockers. Anyone still thinking these boys are all about 80’s poodle hair and soft rock power ballads need to check out some of their latest stuff.
Real solid Rock / Blues massively inspired by Zep, Lizzy etc.

The Storm
A one off project from the early ‘90’s I believe.
Mainly ex Journey members with vocals of Kevin Chalfont
Very melodic rock as you’d imagine but an enjoyable listen all the same.

Very pleased for the gift bag to be reunited with the album again, thought I’d lost it, but found it in the loft when having a lockdown rummage!

Guns N’Roses described them as the only band they would have paid to go see at the time in those LA places like Troubadour, Ritz. Rainbow etc.

With a bit of Jools tinkling the ivories (Uncertain Smile). Classic indeed imo. As is "Infected", but somehow I didn't connect with "Mindbomb" which is virtually unplayedQuote:
