Originally released on Video in 1993 ‘Playing with Fire’ features Legend in concert in October 1992. Only recently re-discovered the original analogue audio tapes have been resurrected and are released here for the first time on CD.
Playing with Fire features the band after the ‘Light in Extension’ tour with the then new line up. Six of the eight tracks from their debut CD ‘Light in Extension’ alongside early versions of tracks from ‘Second Sight’ and the added bonus of Toccata & Blues combine to make this a memorable snapshot of Legend’s early career.
This is a prog band with a concentration on power rock, great interplay between keyboards and rock guitars (think a far more modern sounding Uriah Heep with the emphasis on the keys as opposed to the guitars). You will be blown away by the sheer power and might of the band in concert. Somehow singer Debbie Chapman managed to soar above it all, there may have been melodic chaos going on but her clear and powerful vocals float above it all.
