"A miraculous reissue of the little-known masterpiece left behind in '82 by Nevada-born contemporary Christian singer-songwriter Michael Stozic. The refreshing breeze of the West Coast gently and comfortably tickles your ears." -- Toshikazu Kanazawa American singer-songwriter Michael Stozic, currently active in the gospel/CCM scene, has finally had his self-titled 1st album, independently released in 1982 during his secular era, reissued for the first time after about 40 years! The original LP was pressed in a limited run of only 100 copies and was not distributed to the general public, making it extremely rare, but what's truly wonderful is its content. Featuring magnificent horns and strings, the sound and high-level arrangements are far beyond what you'd expect from a private release, and even saxophonist Jerry Lacroix, who has played with Edgar Winter & White Trash, Blood, Sweat & Tears, and Rare Earth, participates! From light mellow AOR to light urban boogie and sweet ballads, this is a masterpiece boasting exceptional song quality that sets it apart from mere rare record reissues! Media reviews and more: A treasure of early 80's AOR/blue-eyed soul reissued for the first time in the world! An ultra-rare record with only 100 original pressings, boasting miraculous quality with great vocals, great songs, and great sound from beginning to end! (C)RS
