Temporary Message Board Closure
The company hosting the message board sprung a surprise price hike on me that
would have more than tripled the monthly hosting costs, so I've been scrambling
to find an alternative. I've purchased a license for self-hosting a different
platform and am hiring a consultant to migrate the existing board's content
(posts, user profiles, etc.).
However, this means I need to shut down the message board for anywhere
from 3 days to (hopefully less than) a week so the data can be migrated.
While this is an expensive proposition up front, it should result in some
long-term savings.
The current message board will be closed down at some point this
Saturday, August 23. I will post updates here. The main site (where you are
reading this), will NOT be affected.

| They were one of best "folk" bands in Japan.A bit like Air Supply in sound with the singer who sings so high like Vienna Boys Choir but I can not agree they are listed here.

| Excellent poppy AOR/westcoast with no weak tracks. Maybe a little too poppy for some, but if you like Cats Can Fly, Illustrator and stuff like that you need this one. But to say Off Course sound just like the acts mentioned would be unfair, they have a sound of their own, highlighted by brilliant melodies and catchy choruses. There are two lead singers on this album, and some of the backing vocals were provided by Tommy Funderburk and Tom Kelly.

| Very Lite album that i couldnīt dig at first time, if you are not into Lite/Westcoast AOR itīs better that you stay away of this. "Melody" is a good choice as my fav. 8.2/10

Very pleasant WC/Light Aor release and i mean it!...vocally it reminds me of Christopher Cross  ...great songs all over being "Eyes In The Back Of My Heart" & "Love's On Fire" my faves...tracks 2,3,6 & 8 are really nice as well...in general lines a very relaxing album to listen to with a fine bottle of wine and a good lady next to you .87/100
