NOTES ON THIS DIGITAL RELEASE:

Boris Midney takes on the theme from Empire Strikes Back - Star Wars and comes up with this interesting Disco concept album. It has the signature Midney sound throughout (timpani, horns, percussion and strings) and although it did not receive as much play as it should have back in 1980 when it was released on RSO Records, it is a necessary purchase for Boris Midney fans and those who need to get there fill of Star Wars material.

Sharp eyed folks will notice that this CD reissue does not use the original album cover art from the vinyl release, which had the official Empire Strikes Back logo and a color drawing of Han Solo and the Princess. Instead they use the back cover photo of Midney in the recording studio.
