BOXER - Absolutely (Sealed) (LP)

In 1976, legendary vocalist Mike Patto (Timebox, Patto) put together a new lineup of Boxer featuring keyboardist Chris Stainton (Joe Cocker's Grease Band), guitarist Adrian Fisher (Sparks), bassist Tim Bogert (Vanilla Fudge), and drummer Eddie Tuduri (The Beach Boys). The lineup proved volatile and short-lived, but they did tape this lost classic of melodic hard rock in 1977, with producer Jeff Glixman, red-hot from his association with Kansas. It makes its long-awaited debut on CD here, complete with background notes and images.
