2021 press on clear vinyl with pop-up gatefold cover and one bonus track

Signing to Atlantic Records after The Dungeons Are Calling, Savatage seemed ready to break, and, for their third album Power Of The Night, the band stayed away from the fantasy lyrics of their past to focus on pieces that dealt with modern problems, anger, and sex. This record was produced by the hot producer of the time, Max Norman, who became better known as the producer of Megadeth’s 1992 hit album Countdown To Extinction. This was bass player Keith Collins’s last album with the band. Jon and Criss were not completely happy with Keith’s playing and corrected some of his mistakes for the final version. Keith was to be replaced by Johnny Lee Middleton in 1986. I have many fond memories of recording this album, says Jon Oliva. It was our major label debut and our first work outside of Florida. Power of the Night was a very important album for us. This album comes with an exclusive demo version of No More Saturday Nights,
