Hello friends -

Hope you enjoy this fantastic CD from the band Nightwinds. Excellent symphonic progressive rock from Canada. Elements of Genesis, Yes and ELP scattered throughout.

These recordings were created in 1979 but shelved at that time. Soon after that the band broke up. The recordings were rescued and released in 1991 on Ken Golden's magnificent Laser's Edge label. Maybe if we bug him enough he'll put the CD back in print, or better yet, a vinyl version. Hey, a guy can dream, can't he? :)
