The new album “Murder On 42nd Street” features 12 brand new songs and one song that has already been released as a teaser single, albeit with a different mix.It was recorded and self-produced by the band over a period of 2 years and mixed with a little help from their friend Arne Neurand, producer, engineer and co-owner of the reknown Horus Sound Studio in Hannover, Germany.
The songs are straight forward 80s hard rock songs with a pop appeal and a metal edge. They praise an era of the late 80s when the hair was big, the vocals high and the guitarwork virtuo

Although only achieved cult status in the United States, Great Britain’s ROBIN GEORGE is legendary in his home country. Even though he’s probably best known as a backing guitarist for a variety of well-known British superstars such as Phil Lynott, Glenn Hughes, Robert Plant and John Wetton, George is very much a songwriter and musician in his own right.
And while we had to wait more than three decades to see his hit album “Dangerous Music” properly reissued, it’s wonderfu
When it comes to rare AOR albums this one is without a doubt one of the more elusive. “Heaven Calls” is the 1992’s CD by Finnish singer / musician Patrik Linman, who mostly worked as songwriter and producer for others.
Originally released by the tiny local Traccer Music label, a big chunk of the CD pressing was destroyed and since then, became a collectors item as the music packed inside is top class AOR / Melodic Rock crafted with Scandinavian finesse. The few CD copies circulating on the second hand market go for insane prices.
Now thanks to Patrik and producer Clas Holm, LINMAN ”Heaven Calls” is getting a full makeover. The album has been remastered by Clas, giving the songs more punch and brilliance.
