That last note is pretty awesome.

The album is "Rising Force".......1984


It's not the only song with vocals but it is a mostly instrumental album. "Now Your Ships Are Burned" also has vocals.

It may be different for what might have been expected of JSS but it seems fairly generic in the bigger picture - which may well be the point. It definitely meshes with what passes for popular today and should do well with the proper promotion.

I must admit I found Jeff's comment somewhat belittling. It's not for fans of previous work, they won't understand it, won't accept it etc. Let me tell you this isn't Dark Side of the Moon part II here. We want to give it a chance and I'm sure the majority will like it, many will understand and accept it! I can certainly see the potential for success here and applaud the new direction and hope it all goes well. Over time I think this could well be Jeff's biggest success so far and that's coming from someone who doesn't particularly like the samples and is hoping to find himself in the minority.


It wasn't meant to belittle whatsoever, I am a realist that this 'sound/style' won't appeal to most on this entire site much less this board. But since I frequent this place as it does cover a majority of my career, I stand behind it as I do everything I have recorded. Just adding a little explanation to the details for those who expect it to be something it's not & leave disappointed or criticize before they know what's in store with it. That's basically it.


Stand by your work, babe. I'm right there with you.

YES!!!!



Jeff! I have a Yngwie M c.d. with maybe you doing the vocals for the song "As Above, So Below." I think that it's the only vocals on the album. Is it on youtube?
That last note is pretty awesome.

Thanks tree. What a voice. Why doesn't Jeff have a Greatest hits out or does he?

I dont think including 2 talisman songs, half an Eys song and 4 minute Yngwie medley counts as Jeff's greatest hits, unless you're Tito using Mimi's account :shock: :lol:

probably has to do with a combination of reasons. 15,000 labels to deal with and get rights from...and a limited audience even IF you could get the rights to the songs. Basically, it's not worth the trouble for any label to fight to get the songs. The Live at the Gods dvd is the closest there is, unless you count the new dvd he is planning to record in October at Firefest.

I've only heard the songs live...and I like them. One thing I don't like is the album title.
