Van Stephenson - Righteous Anger (1984) [2025]

It was time for two of the most loved and acclaimed AOR albums of all time to get a little makeover.
MelodicRock Classics releases exclusive limited CD reissues of VAN STEPHENSON‘s all-time classic AOR masterpieces ‘Righteous Anger’ (1984) and ‘Suspicious Heart’ (1986). In conjunction with Universal Music, these two masterpiece AOR albums will be available again, limited to 1000 CD each.
Both these classic albums feature audio from original master tapes delivered by Universal and given fresh new life thanks to JK Northrup’s exquisite remastering. Each disc is strictly limited to 1000 copies only and will not be repressed.
With a detailed, crisp production by expert Richard Landis (Nielsen/Pearson, Glen Burtnik) “Righteous Anger” is a gem of an album. It wasn’t until 1996 when it was pressed on CD for the first time, in Germany.
This remaster now sounds fantastic. It’s pure gold.
Needless to say; Van Stephenson’s “Righteous Anger” is a Must Have.
