Very rare vinyl ep by a band very Kansas sounding... from Kansas. The musicianship is excellent, and so is the production, but you are unlikely to ever find a copy! If you get a chance: check out a bunch of their demo tracks. They are even better, and in a more pompous Aor vein, dispensing with the violin, and shaking off the obvious Kansas references, to give them their own sound and style.Patriarch - First Hand 1983 (Pomp Rock) USA

Recorded and produced at Paul Gross (Saga) Phase 1 studios, one of a number of bands using the moniker of "Stiletto", this is the only one that consists of all females. The music is good hard rock with a little funk thrown in the mix, stirred up by some great vocals from Carole Couture.Carole seems to be the only ex band member still working as a vocalist (mostly backing) where she also has added the extra name of Olivieri. (related to Michael?) Also believed to front Heart tribute band "Barracuda".(aor-fm)

Motherlode - The Sanctuary 1986 (CCM Melodic Rock) Suecia
Motherlode is a talented secular melodic hard rock band that came out of Sweden in the mid-eighties with a Christian lead vocalist in Sonny Larsson. And while the bands 1986 Active Music debut The Sanctuary is by no means a Christian album, the lyrics to many of its tracks directly reflect the influence of Larsson's faith. Larsson proves a classic tenor in the truest sense of the word, displaying jaw dropping unlimited range in putting forth a performance ranking him with the likes of Rob Rock (Impellitteri) and Lance King (Pyramaze, Balance Of Power). Tom Nilsson does a terrific job contributing the albums stylish blues influenced lead guitar work. Martin Hedberg is as fine a drummer as I have heard, while bassist Peter Rundstrom makes his presence felt on each track. Keyboardist Mark Stanway (Magnum) accentuates the bands sound without unnecessarily dominating it.(angelicwarlord.com)Motherlode - The Sanctuary 1986 (CCM Melodic Rock) Suecia

I like this guy, very good guitar player. I liked him when he played with GILLAN (FUTURE SHOCK IS A KILLER ALBUM), live with OZZY OSBOURNE after the death of RANDY RHOADS, and the proyect with DEE SNIDER, DESPERADOS. Together with GARY MOORE, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, VINNIE VINCENT, TONY MACALPINE and ALEX MASI one of the best guitarists. (Rene)Torme - Die Pretty Die Young 1987 (Sleaze Glam) UK
