Really tricky mystery album,,, Anyone?

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I know this might be impossible but you guys on this board usually knows alot and are like the twin of old Sherlock. Here's the question.

 

I found an album in one of my regular record stores in the middle of the 90-ties. It was quite new at that time. The odd thing about it was that it had a metallic box. I can't really remember the cover but I think it was a person (boy) with a guitar in one of the lower corners on really blue background. The music was really good melodic hardock with hints of acts like Steeelhouse Lane. I think it might have been from Italy or some other south European country. It also might have been a guitar players project since I remember the album contain several instrumental songs.

 

I know this is a long shot but if anybody here around have a clue it might be awesome. I can't believe I didn't buy this cd. I had it in my hands so many times but I always bought some other albums instead. And the day I was finnaly going to buy it the sucker was gone.

 

Take care

Ali

It might not have been a boy. But the background was blue and it was a metallic Jewel case. That is the biggest clue.

 

I know my description isn't the greatest.

Pretty sure this is the cd in question. It has about a 50/50 mix of great melodic rock and instrumentals ala Yngwie...

 

As you look at the description in this Amazon add it appears it came with a metal slip sleeve. Mine is a Japanese issue on Fandango Records. (No metal slip sleeve and it is "Sample-Promotional Use Only, NOT FOR SALE!)

You are a god mate! :headbanger::banger::banana::drink:

 

You are spot on. That is the cd. I know that someone on this board would figure it out.

 

Is it hard to get?

 

It would be nice to finally listen to it again.

 

Cheers to everyone that helped me
