Category: YOUNG TURK

Regarded as one of the hottest ’80s melodic hard rock bands from the Florida area, YOUNG TURK recorded this debut album ”Train To Nowhere” in 1990 with the help of drummer / producer Carl Canedy (The Rods).
The album, professionally taped in a multi-track console only was released by themselves on cassette, primarily with the intention to seduce some major labels. That was close to happen when Geffen show interest and the contract was almost signed.
Now ”Train To Nowhere” is being reissued / remastered for the first time on CD, with the addition of YOUNG TURK’s rare first demo-EP “Do you know where your daughters are?” from 1987.
This is fun, entertaining US Melodic Hard Rock with that 1988-1989 sound, very well written and executed…

Regarded as one of the hottest ’80s melodic hard rock bands from the Florida area, YOUNG TURK were victims of their own mistakes in not reaching stardom. “Tired Of Laughing” is the band’s third album, ready to be released in 1991 by major label Geffen. But few months before three band members got arrested and the incident sealed their fate.
While “Tired Of Laughing” was anyway put out by the band themselves as promotion, the album never was properly released. Now FnA Records is releasing “Tired Of Laughing – The Lost Geffen Tapes” on CD for the first time, remastered.
Produced by Carl Canedy, “Tired Of Laughing” sound is more according to times – US Rock 1991 – with a more traditional hard rock approach than the glammy / hair metal delivery of their previous recording ‘Train To Nowhere’ (also remastered by FnA and featured at 0dayrox)
