Being a MAJOR fan of Peter Banks as Geff is as well I will get this even though what I heard of 'Empire' was disappointing. Grant you it was on One Way records so maybe with the re-mastering and choice selections this will be good. I hope so.

I love Flash, but never liked Empire. My memory is that Empire is more pop than Flash, & I didn't enjoy the singer. I was catalog at one time, but sold them all.

I agree Geff. The singer turned me off. And to be honest, I was a way too big of a Flash fan to allow for this upon its release. Maybe, just maybe I can recalibrate and be more open minded the next go around.
