Savatage- "Stranger in the Dark"

"A stranger in the dark" is a song in the album "Dungeons Are Calling". Written by Jon Oliva and Criss Oliva.

The big hair monopolized rock music of the 80's, and two Tampa Bay bands stand out ... stranger and Savatic. Both contracted with a major record company, the two bands finally contracted with a major record company in the 1980's, Stranger contracted with Epic / CBS Records in 1981, and Savatage contracted with Atlantic Records in 1985. This will open the doors of other bands as Roxx gangs and the crisis of the 1990s. In the 1990s, several music festivals such as "Livestock", nationwide and live bands, as well as "Bay Area Music Award", "Tampa Bay Music Award" and "Tampa Bay Metal Award" were held. I do not know why they did not win. Oh yeah ... now, we have won Creative Loafing's "The Best of Bay" award. is not the same

To be honest, I wanted to write an article about TSO (Trans-Siberian Symphony Orchestra) for a long time. TSO was developed from Savatage, one of my favorite heavy metal bands. Because TSO is well known, I think it is the best way to introduce Savatage to people. It is the season of TSO's main tour, so I am waiting for Christmas time to write it. But I think there is no point in waiting. I want to do this now for the recent tragic news about Paul O'Neill's death. As a producer and collaborator Paul has long cooperated with TSO's co-creator and producer, Savatage. Everyone who participated in him, Sabatage and TSO should receive all their praise. I want to pay tribute to him. Also I would like to pay tribute to Criss Oliva, the founder of Savatage, a very talented guitarist we lost soon.
