Notes

  • Track 1 sounds like a live track, but it is not.  It is really a studio track.
  • Track 5 originally appeared on the soundtrack to the movie Vision Quest before it appeared here.

    There was also an official video made for Hungry For Heaven using live footage of the band with their dragon & castle stage set-up playing to the studio track.

    I nearly forgot! He also did one for The King of Rock and Roll along the same lines as the Hungry for Heaven video!
