IAN CRICHTON BAND / H3O+ (Ian Crichton of Saga & Paul MacAusland of Haywire) 1995


As requested, here’s SAGA’s guitarist IAN CRICHTON solo album / project called “H3O+“. Ian is a terrific guitar player, perhaps the first to introduce the ‘80s shred / sound into a progressive band. Just check out Saga’s albums ‘Heads or Tales’ and especially 1989’s ‘The Beginner’s Guide to Throwing Shapes’ with its hard-rock inflected solos.

Over 40 years have passed since melodic prog-rock band SAGA released their self-titled debut album. Since then, they have been an exceptional musical phenomenon and toured the globe various times — all the while selling over 10 million albums worldwide. Their sonic trademarks – synthesizer harmonies, keyboard-guitar riffs, melodic arrangements, and the charismatic vocals of frontman Michael Sadler – have made Saga an influential rock act of the modern era.
