Recorded in the 80s & 90s, ”Next Stop L.A.” was Frédéric Slama’s 2nd AOR album released in 2001. Many songs on this album were only demos, re-recorded with different singers years later for the more ‘professional’ AOR releases.
However, these early versions – many taped in 1985 with the help of Michael Thompson, Carlos Vega, Richard Page – have their own charm, and the singers featured, while unknown, are very good.

”Next Stop L.A.” contains the blueprint of many songs that would become AOR (the band)classics later on. All tracks are completely different from the ones with the same name in more recent CD’s from the band.
Long time out of print, it’s now available again almost 20 years later, remastered.
