DRIVE, SHE SAID - Drive, She Said +2 (digitally remastered)
"Drive, She Said", the self-titled debut of the project consisting of Mark Mangold (e.g. TOUCH, THE SIGN) and multi-instrumentalist Al Fritsch is undoubtedly considered a true classic of AOR/Melodic Rock. The 1989 album comes along with two bonus cuts from that era and is, like it should be, freshly mastered. Lots of pomp, sugar sweet melodies but also some harder guitars let the multilayered songs shine like diamonds. Songwriting-legend Mark Mangold revisits his monster-song "Don't You Know What Love Is" taken of the 1980 debut of TOUCH.

DRIVE, SHE SAID - Drivin’ Wheel +3 (digitally remastered)
"Drivin' Wheel", the second album of AOR-project DRIVE, SHE SAID is a genre milestone, too. Also coming with (strong) bonus cuts, three this time, Mangold and Fritsch manage to deliver once again. The 1991 follow-up to the majestic debut is much harder at times which perfectly fits the two main protagonists and their fellow musicians like Tony Bruno (g) of DANGER DANGER fame or Fiona on backing vocals. A true DEEP PURPLE-like title song and a BAD COMPANY-cover add a classic rock-flavour to the sound that never at all denies the fact that it has its origin somewhere between the seventies and eighties.
