Union is a Best Of Label released by Frontiers Records year after year. Here comes the 4th one and I have to admit that the number of group under the flag Frontiers Records is really impressive.

Of course we are talking here of soft hard rock and AOR, but names like Ten, Praying Mantis, The Sign, Millenium, David Glen Eisley, Prime Time, Kip Winger, Seventh Key, Emerald Rain, Hush, Heaven & Earth, Mark Boals, Teer.... are well know bands now.

I won't comment too much each song as more or less each artist of this Union have a full review on our website. The only thing to say here is that the choice of the songs is not bad at all : Ten with its Give In This Time is a nice entry just followed by the excellent song Nowhere To Hide (Praying Mantis) and it continues like this with the band we have mentioned above.

If you already have the records of this bands, there is nothing new here. If you don't have records from this band, if you like Best Ofs, if you are fan of soft hard rock and if you want to discover new bands, I suggest you have a look at this Union 4. Ah just before I leave you, there is two CDs, each full of 75 minutes of hard rock and 33 songs from 33 different bands.

No quote here, but a must for fans of this type of music.
