Steffanie - Hideaway (1985)

TRACKLIST:




Artist : Steffanie
Country : Japan
Release : Hideaway
Year : 1985
Genre : Hard Rock
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

This is one of my all time favourite albums. With the exception of "Believe In Me" (way too poppy), this is some of the best AOR i've ever heard. I also love the way that the album isn't full of vocals; there is also a lot of jamming on here, especially on "Run For Your Love". The title track is simply awesome: memorable riff, great soloing and Steffanie's voice was never better...It never fails to fire me up. Throw in "Get Out Of My Heart", "Change Of Heart" and "Hot Night In The City" and you have one of the most underrated albums you'll ever likely hear.
