| The 2015 Martin Popoff 11-page eBook about the making of Savatage’s 1985 album, Power Of The Night. Florida metal craftsmen Savatage found themselves wielding a major record deal with Atlantic after the effusive praised bestowed upon the band following their landmark 1983 debut, Sirens. The sophomore album did not disappoint, with the band turning in a monstrous affair of rumbling traditional metal, track after track on Power Of The Night molten of riff and bruised and battered of rhythm, while vocalist Jon Oliva proved himself a thespian shrieker for the ages. Come hear the story of how the album was recorded in a haunted Bearsville studio and then the debacle that was the band’s very first tour, after which Savatage would have to sack their bass player and rethink their future. |
