MADISON- Diamond mistress (1984)


Since the previous post was related to Goran Edman I decided it was the perfect timing to upload his first official album release way back from year 1984. At that time he was lead singer in Madison, a very talented Swedish band. Madison played a mixture of early melodic heavy metal and hard rock. The band sounded like a rougher version of early Europe. Edman's high octave vocals sounded a little unpolished compared to his later works, but he was a pleasure to listen to. It was obvious he was a gifted singer who would make a respectable career later on. Madison only lasted until the follow up album ''Best in show'' (1986) which was also very good.

ENJOY!!!

KHARMA- Wonderland (2000)


This is one of the countless projects of Swedish singer Goran Edman (Madison, John Norum, Malmsteen, Glory, Brazen Abbott, etc). The masterminds behind the project are two relatively unknown musicians, guitarist Dragan Tanaskovic and keyboard player Attila Szabo. The guys wrote 13 songs of pure AOR and pomp rock delight. Goran Edman's vocal range and adaptability to the various styles of songs makes him the perfect choice for the music of Kharma. Not to mention his passionate singing. Styx is a band that will often come in mind during the album and Toto could also be considered an influence. Malmsteen fans will love the ballad Angel eyes, which sounds like an ''Eclipse'' or ''Fire and ice'' bonus track.

ENJOY!!!
