Album: "DESTINATION KNOWN (2CD DIGI)"
Year:
2007
Media type:

- In the meantime we thought it a great idea to combine the first two albums (Alliance + Missing Piece) onto a digipack, remaster them of course and give the whole package the full Escape treatment, with a lavish new artwork. Oh, yes, I am sure the eight bonus tracks will be interesting too. This is a US supergroup that intend to go places…. Destination Known is a great title for a band that have a very glowing future [!]

Alliance are a dedicated, solid rock band that are progressing into one of the most exciting prospects in the melodic rock scene. They are possibly the band to successfully take this form of music into the future. What makes them more interesting is that the four musicians involved have such a high profile and have all been involved with some of the biggest names in rock history. In fact, they still are connected to many famous bands, and despite hectic schedules they still manage to find time to devote to this very special band, Alliance. So who are these four people? First of all drummer David Lauser has spent most of his career with the Sammy Hagar Band, both touring and recording. Alan “Fitz” Fitzgerald needs no introduction; many of you will know that he plays keyboards for Nightranger and his work is unquestionably brilliant. Guitarist Gary Pihl has also worked with Sammy Hagar in the pre Van Halen days, but more importantly perfectionist Tom Scholz asked him to join Boston. His work can be heard on the later Boston albums. As for band leader and lead vocalist Robert Berry, he has become an icon in the rock world.
Robert’s work stems back to the late seventies, when his band “Hush” recorded a couple of albums, which never really got the attention they deserved. Escape Music released a CD in February, 1998 (“Hush” ESM 027) which saw lost recordings see the light of day. It was obvious that the band was way ahead of its time. Since then, Robert has become a household name in progressive and melodic circles. He has recorded at least three solo albums, recorded an album with Keith Emerson and Carl Palmer (of Emerson, Lake & Palmer) under the name of “3”. Robert now has his own studios, “Soundtek”, and this is where the first Alliance album was recorded for Escape Music (Alliance ESM 012). This exquisite piece of work has gone on to become a much-loved recording and an essential part of any serious CD collection, so much so it completely sold out. The second album, called “Missing Piece” (ESM 048) was a massive leap forward for the band. Somehow, Robert took a whole new approach to the Alliance sound and honed it into a melodic force to be reckoned with. The song structures remained simple and uncluttered, yet created an aura of beauty and intense harmonies. You would only have to listen to the first song “I’d give anything” once and you will be singing it for weeks after. Indeed the album “Missing Piece” is still an inspiring piece of work. Yet, as a listener you felt that the best was still to come. A few years in the waiting it may be said, but the third album will be released later in 2007 on Escape music.
In the meantime we thought it a great idea to combine the first two albums onto a digipack, remaster them of course and give the whole package the full Escape treatment, with a lavish new artwork. Oh, yes, I am sure the eight bonus tracks will be interesting too. This is a US supergroup that intend to go places….Destination Known is a great title for a band that have a very glowing future.
