 | | Description: | Formed in the biker hotspot of San Bernadino, east of Los Angeles, Alkana centred on the voice and lyrics of future Warlord frontman, Jack Rucker, and the guitar pyrotechnics of Danny Alkana, who drew heavily from the style of Bostonâ??s Tom Scholz and Deep Purpleâ??s Richie Blackmore, bassist Craig Williams and drummer Donny McLaughlin keeping the rhythms fast and furious. â??California Rock n Roll Queenâ?? and psych epic â??The Towerâ?? have the kind of Golden State rock majesty of Van Halen or Journey, and there are shades of Granmax, Asia and Judas Priest too. Originally issued on the BABY BIRD label in 1978, this is a long lost hard rock gem, ripe for rediscovery! - Vinyl LP pressing of this 1978 album."Welcome To My Paradise" is a rare gem in the world of progressive rock, originally released by Alkana in 1978 and now available as an LP through SURVIVAL RESEARCH. This album stands out for its blend of hard rock riffs, melodic hooks, and intricate arrangements that capture the spirit of late-70s American prog-rock. Alkana was formed by guitarist Donny Simmons and vocalist Jack Rucker (who later joined AOR legends White Sister), bringing together exceptional musicianship with powerful vocals and dynamic guitar work. Though not widely known at the time, "Welcome To My Paradise" has since achieved cult status among collectors for its unique sound and high-quality songwriting. The reissue by SURVIVAL RESEARCH ensures that new generations can experience this overlooked classic on vinyl. SURVIVAL RESEARCH is renowned for their dedication to unearthing lost treasures from the worlds of psychedelic, progressive, and obscure rock music'always delivering carefully remastered editions with attention to detail. | | | No. of tracks: |
