  • Description

    ."Reel to Real: The Archives 1987-1992" focuses on a short, five year period, when the singer was partly based in Australia. Kicking off with three tracks recorded in Los Angeles in 1987, 'Tonite I Fly', 'Reel To Real' and 'The Dancer', they feature Alcatrazz guitarist Danny Johnson. 'Whiplash', 'Long Time Gone', covers of 'Summer In The City' and 'River Deep - Mountain High' plus 'Midnight Crossing' were recorded in Adelaide, Australia in 1989 during the period that Graham had relocated down under. The first disc is completed by 'Double Cross My Heart', 'Hearts Under Fire' and 'Dead Man Walking'..Before finding worldwide fame with Rainbow in 1979, Graham had enjoyed some of his biggest solo successes in Australia, which would explain the inclusion of covers of Bob Dylan's 'It's All Over Now, Baby Blue', and the aforementioned Bee Gees' disco staple 'Warm Ride' on the two 1989 solo concerts featured on discs 2 and 3, recorded in Melbourne and Adelaide respectively. Although slightly incongruous amongst the hard rock of Rainbow, MSG and Alcatrazz, the songs actually sit comfortably among Graham's solo versions of 'All Night Long', 'Since You Been Gone', 'Desert Song' and 'Island In The Sun'. Solo tracks such as Russ Ballard's 'S.O.S.' are included as well as Alcatrazz's 'God Blessed Video', anti-drink-driving anthem 'Will You Be Home Tonight'.
