My most played album #416. Pretty Maids - The Best Of ... Back to Back. My eighth Pretty Maids album of the day I love this band nobody ever heard of. In 1987 I was listening to an Album Network CD, a industry promo for DJ's and Radio stations and a song Future World was on it I thought it was a greatest song ever. The album peaked at #165 on billboard and sold 300,000 worldwide I thought they where on their way. They did great in Japan and Europe yet never in America. Still making great CD's today still selling well but not in America. Sounds like Dream Theater meets Survivor. Featured at the 1987 German version of Monsters of Rock, where Metallica headlined along with Deep Purple. Mixing duties were shared between Metallica, Rainbow and Morbid Angel producer Flemming Rasmussen, and Kevin Elson, known for producing albums by Journey, Mr. Big and Europe.
