It is time for Arkeyn Steel Records to bring these treasures to light:
RED RAVEN/PROPHET - Future Fortunes CD
RED RAVEN & PROPHET from Kansas City, Missouri, US. Both bands delivered a magnificent combination of Progressive Hard Rock and Melodic Metal featuring the outstanding voice of Don Crosby (who was the singer of Wyred, another great band from Kansas City, Missouri. Their magnificent full length "Image" that has been reissued on Arkeyn Steel Records).
Crosby was the common member, and main composer in both bands that never went too far, but fortunately managed to record some brilliant music: PROPHET released their "Potential" demo back in 1988 and RED RAVEN recorded a bunch of songs back in 1991, songs that remained unreleased until today.
The complete set of all these demo recordings is now available on CD. All the songs have been carefully remastered from the original tapes by Kostas Scandalis (Infinity Studios, Thessaloniki, Greece). Don Crosby himself has written the included biography. The one and only existing Prophet’s photo has been saved, restored and included in the booklet. Complete lyrics are included as well. Kostas Athanasoglou developed the overall artwork of the booklet and arranged a great fantasy cover.
This is not just another reissue: This is a wonderful voyage to deep emotion and musical expression. This is the kind of music that deserves to live eternally and not to be buried in a dusty vault, under future fortunes its travels begin again!
For fans of US Progressive Melodic METAL like PSYCHOTIC WALTZ, WYRED, RUSH, FATES WARNING (John Arch era), TRYTAN & GYPSY KYSS!
