It is on (KGS Records)1988  PA, USA. Songs include "Lady", "Life", "No Turning Back" & "Feels So Good". One of the RAREST AOR RECORDS in the world. I have never seen this MONSTER for sale, but I have seen it on EVERY metal & AOR want list in the world. This record features the first recordings of RICHIE KOTZEN before Posion. This is maybe your only chance to ever own a copy of this GEM as it is the only one I have ever seen or even heard about for sale, according to the band (who does not have any) they only made 500 and have all been sold out since 1988." "Producer David Ivory really did a fantastic job, because the sound and production couldn't be better. Opener "L.A." is a nice midtempo melodic rocker, but it's the following two tracks that are making this E.P. so classic AOR. First there is "Feels so good", a high class AOR/Pomp Ballad like the first PROPHET album. This song has some classic AOR keys. Then the song "No turning back" is high class super AOR like a mixture between WHITE SISTER and SURVIVOR. You can't get any better than this. This song closes the wonderful side-A. Moving over to side-B you don't get as classic AOR/Pomprock orientated as side-A, but still quite enjoyable material. "Lady" starts calm and slow, but the explosive chorus is heavy Pomp Melodic Rock like TOUR DE FORCE mixed with WINTER'S REIGN. The harmonyvocals are really big during this chorus. The closing track "Life" is somewhat like the opening track of side-A, a nice midtempo melodic rocker that reminds me of STRESS. Concluded I can only say that this is pretty much a must for the fan of 80s AOR/Pomprock. If bands like MESSAGE, early PROPHET, WHITE SISTER are your kind of bands, then this will be worth looking for."
