I've been waiting a long, long tIme for this to become available on CD again having missed out on the CD issue first time around (which promptly disappeared soon after). This in my humble opinion is the Gillan to own - the Man's voice is in top form, brilliant guitar playing from Bernie Torme and not a dud song in sight! And it comes complete with the original For Gillan Fans Only album (plus 2 tracks). At this price an absolute steal! Treat yourself to some classic 80's Ian Gillan!

Sometimes you come to write about something, be it a CD or a book for example, and words fail you.
This is one of those occasions for me! An absolutely brillant album, buy it, listen to it, enjoy it! It's been a very long time since music like this was around. Gillan at their very best!
The second disc is humourous in places (music aside) and definitely for Gillan Fans Only, but to be honest, at this price, you would pay twice the price for disc one alone! Glory Road is THE Gillan album - if you don't buy any of the others, do yourself a favour and buy this one.
I've given five stars only because Amazon won't let me give it ten!

I can vividly remember playing the original vinyl version of this superb album and it encouraged me to buy many more of his excellent albums especially Clear Air Turbulance which has that rich Deep Purple influence melody to it.
Strangely enough this syle of music has a seventies feel to it but feels contemporary.
Until you listen to this highly accomplished album you willnot realise how good the songs and melodies are.Its a difficult album to describe but if you like Deep Purple with a folk ballad type heavy rock then you will understand how good the album is.
The track Glory Road is a superb one but prabably the song Gillan was remembered for was the commercial track New Orleans which was released as a single when vinyl was still King.
Of all Gillans albums this is his best and this is a double disc album with a lot more excellent songs.
I have not listened to any of my Gillan albums for many years but his voice is so distinctive you know instantly who it is and what a fine voice especially when he fronted Deep Purple.

A Welcome return
I first owned this album on vinyl when it was originally released and was worried that like many early 80's rock bands it would not have stood the test of time. Read more
