SARAYA – When The Blackbird Sings [Bad Reputation remastered] (2021) *0dayrox Exclusive*

Long time out of print, Bad Reputation Records have just reissued / remastered SARAYA‘s stunning second album “When The Blackbird Sings…“. While not successful in sales as their self-titled debut, “When The Blackbird Sings…” is even better in many aspects, elaborated and mature female fronted Melodic Hard Rock of the highest order.
The band – from New Jersey – formed around vocalist Sandi Saraya and keyboard player Greg Munier in 1987 and they debuted on Polydor in 1989 when they were called ‘the new Bon Jovi’. The band’s second album ”When The Blackbird Sings” consolidated their sound which blended elements of the best female-fronted rock with out-and-out rock swagger.
Any band in this style should look to Saraya as the blueprint, and you, as fan of the genre, need both their albums in your collection.
This Bad Reputation reissue does the trick: a fresh, vibrant remastered sounding disc…
