Description/Reviews: 

"Wind Of The Eastern Sea" features Progressive, and Hard Rock Instrumental pieces with guitar synth melodies and acoustic and classical elements and textures, influenced by such artists as: Ritchie Blackmore and Deep Purple/Rainbow, Pat Metheny, Alex Lifeson, Marillion, and even Blues and Jazz artists such as Kim Simmonds of Savoy Brown and George Benson. "Wind Of The Eastern Sea Suite" is a collection of pieces composed in C tuning, where the final piece of the suite: Wind of the Eastern sea, combines the previous themes and melodies similar to the WHO's Quadrophenia. Another highlight of this disc is "Nuclear Burn 2015" (originally from Charles Brown's 2001 release: EARTH VOYAGE) which has been remastered and features blistering keyboard work by Matt Bassano reminiscent of Jordan Rudess (Dream Theater), Keith Emerson and Kansas.
