LINER NOTES
LANGUAGE
The tenth album was released by CBH/Virgin in 1991. It was recorded in 1990 at Karo Studios in Hamburg and produced by Kalle Trapp with the band; because the recording and the release fall in different years, catalogues sometimes date it 1990. It is the first Saxon album with Nibbs Carter on bass, and he has not left the place since. Byford, Oliver, Quinn and Glockler complete the line-up. It reached twenty-three in Germany and twenty-eight in Switzerland. The Japanese pressing added "Reeperbahn Stomp" as a bonus track. The running order given here is the original pressing's. The German pressing titles the tenth track "Bavarian Rhapsody", but the order is the same on every edition.
