All The Way

Die Befürchtung, dass der AC/DC- beziehungsweise Krokus-Faktor zu dominant ausfallen könnte, bewahrheitet sich zum Glück nicht. Denn auch wenn die ersten Strophentakte des Openers ‘Dreamer’ die Vorliebe der Schweizer Gloria Volt für pumpenden Pub-Rock’n’Roll mit Boogie-Faktor unmittelbar zur Schau stellen, nimmt schon die Bridge eine erfreuliche Ausfahrt und verlässt mit glorreichem melodischem Golden Earring-Gestus (eine Referenz-Band, die auf ALL THE WAY DOWN durchaus Mehrfach­nennungen für sich beanspruchen kann) den Pfad der stumpf vor sich hin stampfenden Vorhersehbarkeit.

Frequency of Spirit was originally released in 2005, in the same month that the band's former record company Atenzia Records filed for bankruptcy. Now resurrected and fully remastered by Alan Douches (Fleetwood Mac, Yes, Mastodon), this seminal album is given new life. THE WAY is a band built around 3 dynamic individuals who have sold over 100,000 records, recorded for EMI, Sony and Atlantic records, and toured over 500 cities in 15 countries. Vocalist Russell Arcara (Prophet, Surgin), Keyboardist Charlie Calv (Angel, Shotgun Symphony) and guitarist Stephen DeAcutis (Corey Glover) may be some familiar names but what you are about to hear is nothing like you have heard from them before.

Titles include: The Power of Love * If You Asked Me To * Beauty and the Beast * Because You Loved Me (Theme from Up Close and Personal) * Love Can Move Mountains * To Love You More * My Heart Will Go On (Love Theme from Titanic) * I'm Your Angel (Duet with R. Kelly) * That's the Way It Is * If These Walls Could Talk * All the Way * Live and more.
