Rude Awakening

A great reissue of a cd that never got the attention it deserved. Packaged as the "Special Fifth Anniversary Addition" Frontiers Records and Now and Then wisely gave fans of melodick rock another chance to pick up the former House of Lords' frontman James Christian's solo album. It was a pretty damn good album to begin with, but with six additional bonus tracks, this cd is more than worth adding to your collection. When James released this cd in 1994 he showed his talent as not only a singer, but also as a writer, guitarist, bassist, drummer and producer. If you missed it the first time around (or even if you didn't) you should get this reissue. --Scott
