- -- Release notes ---------------------------------------------------- -- -
THIS MIGHT SEEM to be a fairly obvious statement of fact, but
it's easy to forget just how significant Vandenberg became in
the early 1980s. A Dutch hard rock band with the style,
musicianship, confidence, songs and sound to match anything
being done elsewhere. And, for a while it appeared inevitable
that they'd be destined to achieve greatness.
"Heading For A Storm" was the band's second album, emerging
after the unexpected success of their debut which had secured
them a foothold in the top 30 of the US singles charts with
the track "Burning Heart". For album #2 they returned to the
same producer and studio; that's Stuart Epps and SOL studio on
the banks of the River Thames, a facility owned by Jimmy Page.
Less confrontational than their debut album, "Heading For A
Storm", originally issued in 1983, showcased a more mature
Vandenberg, one with increasingly sophisticated songs (all
written by guitarist Adrian Vandenberg) and far broader scope.
The album may not have eclipsed sales of the debut in the USA,
where record company politics hampered progress, but in Europe
the record gained healthy traction. With cover art painted by
Adrian, whose guitar solos also continued to impress, the
album is now regarded as an essential cornerstone of the
band's legacy. Special Deluxe Collector's Edition, fully
remastered sound shaped from 24 BIT digital technology, 12
page full colour booklet, 3,500 word essay, enhanced artwork,
photos and new interview with Adrian Vandenberg.
Originally released in 1983.
