Description
RE-PRESS: CD ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 2018
Classic debut album from Illusion from 1976. Featuring ex-members of Renaissance.
Following re-issues of the first two Renaissance albums this classic debut album by Illusion continues the story.
Featuring original Renaissance members Jane Relf (Vocals), Jim McCarty (Vocals, Guitar, Percussion), John Hawken (Keyboards) and Louis Cennamo (Bass), Illusion came together in 1976 following the death of original Renaissance vocalist Keith Relf (originally vocalist with The Yardbirds). Recruiting Lead Guitarist John Knightsbride and drummer and percussionist Eddie McNeil, the band assumed the name of Illuson (taken from the title of the second Renaissance album) and signed to Island Records.
Their debut album was an updated version of the classical and folk-inspired Progressive Rock that had been explored on the first two Renaissance albums. Featuring outstanding material such as ‘Isadora’, ‘Roads to Freedom’ and ‘Candles Are Burning’, the album ‘Out Of The Mist’was a fine debut.
Unavailable officially on CD for many years, this Esoteric Recordings re-issue is remastered and restores the original album artwork and features a new essay.
