Following a period of hiatus, the long awaited return to the studio resulted in this classic album, recorded in 1999 with the band Visible Faith. Somewhat a departure from the style of Ken's older solo work, the album had an interesting mixture of Gospel and rock. Unfortunately the album is extremely hard to find these days, for those looking to buy a copy. Production ceased a few years ago and has yet to recommence. «A Glimpse Of Glory» is often called a ‘Christian’ album, though the number of songs with love lyrics (‘relationship songs’) is almost the same as the number of ‘spiritual’ ones. It was the first album Ken recorded and released after his return to music. «A Glimpse Of Glory» was a new musical material recorded at Hensley’s The Upper Room Studios in St. Louis, Missouri. It was released by his own label, HIS Records.

Bringing together two heavyweights of Techno was always going to result in something extra special and Systematic Recordings have done just that as label chief Marc Romboy joins forces with Tokyo based Ken Ishii on the epic Album "Taiyo." "Taiyo" with its cinematic atmospheres combined with futuristic Techno rhythms (as you would expect from them) is much more than just another electronic Album. It´s a trip, a journey, a catching dream sequence, with other words a long player expressing the concept to combine the creativity of two minds from two different culture areas, that is to say Germany and Japan…
This surprisingly consistent collection of unreleased material compiles a series of demos and outtakes recorded by Ken Hensley, a singer and songwriter best known for his work with Uriah Heep, between 1971 and 1982. Odds and sods compilations are often a dicey proposition, but From Time to Time manages to beat the odds with an effective combination of polished songcraft and inspired performances: The studio outtakes all boast fully realized productions (some even including a string section) and the demos aspire to studio quality thanks to tight arrangements that often differ from the released versions ("If I Had the Time" forsakes the space rock excesses of the Uriah Heep version for a lovely, country-flavored mid-tempo pace).
