Description

Classic female fronted melodic rock with some glorious pompous keyboard moments. Alexa Anastasia was a Swiss beauty discovered by Paul Sabu. The fact is that Paul Sabu and his complete band at the time, Only Child, assisted in the recording of this sole album. Comparable to Saraya and Witness, with her deepish, gritty delivery, her voice sounded uncannily like Sabu's (or is it me?!). As usual Paul Sabu's guitar work shines. Alexa also made two tracks for the soundtrack album ‘Bram Stokers Dracula: The Love Story To Die For’ that are incredible hard to find (if it was released at all). The two tracks ‘For You I'd Die’ and ‘Where Are You’ are just as fantastic female fronted AOR/Melodic Rock like the debut album. The album was re-issued by MTM in 2007 and it would have been great if the re-issue had featured the two tracks but unfortunately it isn’t. Alexa was an artist with strong visual image that missed the boat in 1989 which really was a disgrace really since its an essential album chocked full of fine melodies and unforgettable hooks, and should be sought out at the earliest opportunity. Classic Rock magazine recently said this album was an undiscovered classic. This is the very rare out of print original version on Savage records Track listing: 1. I Can't Shake You 2. We Don't Remember Why 3. Dance The Night Away 4. Wanderlust 5. Let It Rock 6. A Cry Away 7. Cool Wind 8. Heart To Heart 9. Spooky 10. From Now On
