"To make a long story short — we came up with a concept that is basically me covering stuff I grew up with and still love, bands and songs that influenced me AND that have never or at least rarely been covered before. I don't think the world needs the 987th version of 'Purple Haze'...
The album was mixed by Pelle Saether at Studio Underground in Västerås and will be released by Grooveyard Records on November 24 (Janne's birthday). A web site will also be launched at www.mountainofpower.com. In the meantime, you can hear four song samples at the project's official http://www.myspace.com/mountainofpower.

Press release
In 2000, the first AOR album "L.A CONCESSION" was released, 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!

This is the 6th album that Tommy has worked on with Frederic and he has again produced several songs and plays guitars and keyboards as well.

The release of "L.A. Concession" is scheduled on MTM MUSIC in November 10th, 2006.
