---------------------------------------------------------------------
A collection of the band's more "traditional" rock records (without intense pop-rock sound, or more "modern" heavy metal like other downloads). Whether this can be considered heavy metal is debatable; it's closest in style to Scorpions records, like "In Trance" or "Loverdrive" (the vocals of the leading soloist Skachkov even somewhat reminds of Meine's vocals), which for that period was clearly considered heavy metal, but since that period this concept has changed, and now it sounds more like melodic hard and heavy.

A slightly improved version of track 15:

Hidden Link

Apparently one of their few true metal tracks (reminiscent of Stormwitch in their early days).
