Some of you might have heard of Alien City, an album released out of Seattle about 35 years ago. I believe it was released under artist name Jon Tornbow, but it was actually Jon Strongbow. There seems to be some kind of reaction to the original vinyl LP amongst prog freaks.

Remastering engineer Steve Turnidge got hold of it not too long ago and has remastered the entire album and the results are pretty amazing, considering the problems with the original release. In fact, completing the project was a struggle and a half. For those who are interested in the story, I recently posted a three-way conversation between myself, Turnidge and Strongbow in which they explain the journey from then to now. There is also a link to stream the entire album, front to back. You can link into the piece at this url:
