Atlantic – Power (1994) [Escape Music remastered reissue +1 bonus], MP3+FLAC , CD w/ Scans

Originally released in 1994, this magnificent and only album from ATLANTIC resumes all the best elements of british AOR of end 80's with influences ranging from DARE to FM, STRANGEWAYS and early HEARTLAND. A little classic that finally gets a proper reissue and remastered with 1 bonus track !

As requested, here’s one of the greatest AOR albums ever made, British combo ATLANTIC and their only album titled “Power“. Originally released 1994 in Europe & Japan, “Power” resulted a holy grail for fans of the genre as grunge already dominated the charts pushed by the industry.
ATLANTIC was more a project than a band, formed by talented UK musicians looking to create something musically similar to the first Phenomena Project. They took the time to carefullt write, arrange and produce – themselves, and with an AWESOME polished bright sound – all these songs.
They needed a top class, smooth singer for these classy AOR songs… enter reputed Philip Bates, an English musician who has been a member of many notable bands, including Trickster and Quill (and later ELO Part II).
Recorded 1992, what these six musicians created into the studio is just ‘MAGIC’. AOR magic. And they had as guest ‘harmony vocalists’ no other than Tony Mills and David A. Saylor (RIP both).

This is the remastered reissue of “Power” including a killer bonus track, an outtake (!) from the original sessions. The (!) means… sacrilege! How could they have dropped this song originally… all tracks on this album are pure gold.
