MelodicRock Classics bring another chapter of AOR history to light in partnering with Swedish band THE STATION, to finally made available their unreleased archives to fans.
THE STATION are of course, the pre-cursor to the much-loved HOUSE OF SHAKIRA.
‘Once Upon A Time (1989-1993)’ features some glorious Scandi anthemic melodic rock, some songs will be familiar to HoS fans, while others help show the origins of the band’s sound. In 1989 all band members agreed on a rule. They vowed to musically “try every new idea with an open mind”. This approach boosted creativity and made for a versatile and dynamic songwriting.
It was a simple golden rule that shaped The Station – both then and there, and for the future. The songs are Engineered by Peter Edlund & Göran Elmquis with attention to detail and that classic Scandi perfection.
Although these recordings remained officially unreleased until now, their absence was never a reflection of their quality. Quite the opposite: most of them are packed with that unmistakable Scandinavian magic. The production and sound quality are more than clear, and many bands would have killed for recordings this good.
