Founded in the early 80's with an average age of below 20, the band
centered around vocalist/ bassist Jan Achmann and guitarist
Lars Impgaard soon succeeded to become one of the hottest
acts in their home country of Denmark. Even
Pretty Maids frontman Ronnie
Atkins for a short time was a member of
LA
and a first demo was produced by
Skagarack
bassist Morten Munch. Those demos resulted in a record deal
with Teleag Records and the debut album "LA"
finally was released in 1985.
LA started
to play live to support the release and new songs were demoed soon.
Due to the breakdown of their label and other business affairs, the
band disbanded from the scene in 1986 before the 2nd album was
finished. A massive amount of e-mails by fans through the internet
requesting "LA"
on CD got the band together again in 2003 and made them remaster
their debut album. After several meetings, it became obvious that
the old chemistry still was there. The 80's demos still had their
charm and LA
hit the famous Jailhouse Studios in Copenhagen to re-record
those songs with well-known producer Tommy Hansen (Helloween,
Pretty Maids,
MSG
(Gary Barden),
Grand Illusion
etc). Danish National TV2 picked up on the news of the now middle
aged 80's rockers and
LA was
headlining the prime time news with the story of making the album
and the CD to come. A deal with Escape Music followed shortly
and here we go: the new album "Unfinished
Business" will see the light on
the on 06/12/2004.
The strictly limited edition of "Unfinished
Business" will come along as
2-CD and exclusively include the "LA"
album as bonus on the second disc. | |
