MTM Music has announced that they will re-release AOR(Frédéric Slama's project) project first effort "L.A. Concession" on November 10.
Here is the quotes from official press release:
After having recorded a couple of solo albums and having produced some French and American artists, Frédéric Slama decided to start a "one man band". This marked the birth of his project AOR, always using the cream of US session players. In 2000, the first album "L.A CONCESSION" was released and gave Frédéric big respect in the Westcoast / AOR music scene. The second album "NEXT STOP L.A" was released one year later. It was in 2002 that Frédéric Slama released his third album "L.A. REFLECTION", which was considered to be the best Westcoast CD of the year by many journalists and fans. In 2003, Frédéric Slama returned with "DREAMING OF L.A" and in 2004, Frédéric released "NOTHING BUT THE BEST", a compilation album featuring the best songs from his previous CD's with unreleased tracks. AOR was back again in 2006 on MTM with a new cd called "L.A ATTRACTION "featuring as always the cream of L.A session players such as STEVE LUKATHER , PHILIP BARDOWELL, TOMMY DENANDER, MICHAEL LANDAU and many more. The current album "L.A Concession" was actually released in 2000 as a strictly limited "private pressing" on CD-R only. when this album appeared on eBay, prices usually ranged around 150.00 €. Finally, this extraordinary production finds its way into the record stores and mail orders as an official release. The CD now includes 4 previously unreleased bonus tracks, a new full colour booklet with lyrics which make this great fully remastered album even more attractive for all AOR / Westcoast and melodic rock fans!
