Saxon’s eighth studio LP was originally issued by EMI in 1986. Featuring the radio-friendly singles ‘Waiting For The Night’ and ‘Northern Lady’, the latter featuring guest piano from none other than Elton John, this released is now expanded by the inclusion of 7” single edits, as well as the otherwise unavailable b-side ‘Chase The Fade’. It also features live versions of ‘Everybody Up’ and ‘Dallas 1pm’, recorded in Madrid, and is rounded off by three tracks from their Saturday 23rd August headlining appearance at the 1986 Reading Rock festival.
