You shouldn't be scared away by the fact that this is a ballad
collection. Usually those kinds of albums get very boring, but not
this one. This is not just one of those power ballads albums that
is put out with the purpose to attract people, who usually not
listening to hard rock. This isn't power ballads in the sense were
used to. They're just wonderful and calm symphonic rock songs from
Lana's three studio albums "Love Is an Illusion", "Curious Goods"
and "Garden of the Moon"; some Rocket Scientists songs and some
re-recorded tracks. There are also 3 cover songs; with The Beatles
"Across the Universe" being the best. With these beautiful songs
and the fact that 7 out of 10 tracks contain Mellotron, it's hard
to resist this album. The best tracks are "Stardust", "Through the
Fire" and "Across the Universe".
As usual the splendid musicians from Rocket Scientists are backing
up Lana Lane together with some other great musicians.
The Polish artist Jacek Yerka once again made the cover art, and
this time it is called "Bishop of the Sargasso Sea". This is a
good album if you've never heard Lana Lane before, and it is also
a good complement to every old Lana Lane fans collection, as there
are some new things for you to explore.
