Notes: This is the second volume of a collection of rarities from Greg
Lake. Three tracks here are from the Ride the Tiger demos, 6 pieces
recorded by Lake and Geoff Downes in summer 1988. Lake had briefly
replaced John Wetton in Asia in 1983 and later worked on this project,
but no release was forthcoming with the partial Asia reunion of Aqua taking precedence
for Downes. (3) appeared on Asia's Aqua,
while another appeared on ELP's Black
Moon; and an alternate mix of this recording was included on
another Greg Lake compilation, From The Beginning—The Greg Lake
Retrospective. (HP, 27 Jun 10)
