ICE — Opus 1 (1980-1998) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

Although a late opus of the German progressive rock this album is entirely related to this tradition. Some tracks only with strings, piano or guitar are a bit out of place but don’t interfere too much. Unfortunately the master tapes are missing, thus "Opus 1" was recorded from vinyl to CD without being remastered. However surface noises can hardly be heard as it was directly recorded from an unplayed vinyl record to DAT. Maybe in the future both Ice singles as well as some so far unreleased tracks will be released on CD. GOD
