Description
The first one, " Uncovered Heart ", featured drummer Hadders (who also was a member of Von Lyx and Voodoo) and bassplayer Olson (at the time member of Talk Of The Town) and some guest musicians. It was released in March 1988 (LP) and December the same year (CD).
"Second Movement "was a result of a collaboration between Cross and Hadders who wrote most of the tracks together in their newly opened Progress Studio. André contributed with some nice keyboard work and once again Olson played bass. When all tracks were recorded Cross and Hadders met vocalist Tai (who at the time had a band together with André) who was asked to add vocals on 50% of the tracks which he willingly did. Ulf Adåker (trumpet) and Idde Schultz (background vocals) are also heard on the album that was released in 1990.
The third and last part was recorded now and then during 1992 - 1993 and was titled " III - Changing poison into medicine". It's a mixture of longer epic songs as well as shorter pop songs. Once again Jock "Tai" Millgårdh sang nearly half of the material. Among many contributing musicians former Von Lyx bassplayer Johan Nordenfelt is heard. Released December 1993.
By the time of the release of this, the third album, interest for progressive rock was increasing in Sweden. Curious about how it would work on stage Hansi Cross put together a live act, featuring Tai as the lead vocalist and Tomas Hjort on drums, for some club gigs. Hansi and Tomas had met a couple of months earlier, during a recording session in Progress Studio.
