The Crimson Sun has been 36 years in the making! This album has it's roots as early as 1978 with the song Many Miles. Many of these songs were originally composed in 1978, 1980, or 1983. Three were written more recently in 2010 for the project as well. I did not have the opportunity over the years to record these songs, and when I became involved with other projects I almost forgot about them. A dear person in my life reminded me about how good the songs actually were. It was after listening to her encouragement I decided to finally get some of the great, great songs on plastic. I hope you enjoy this. Mike Parenti
