The CD features a blazing version of JIMI HENDRIX' "Spanish Castle Magic", which closes the show. "Trial By Fire: Live in Leningrad" was recorded with Joe Lynn Turner on vocals, Jens and Anders Johansson on keyboards and drums (respectively),and Barry Dunaway on bass.
"Live '85" was filmed at Nakano Sun Plaza in Tokyo on January 24, 1985, during the "Rising Force" world tour. The 85-minute video features the lineup of Yngwie J. Malmsteen (guitar),Jeff Scott Soto (lead vocals),Marcel Jacob (bass),Jens Johansson (keyboards) and Anders Johansson (drums).
Yngwie Malmsteen and drummer Patrick Johansson reportedly went into Malmsteen's Miami, Florida studio in July to begin recording demos for the next YNGWIE MALMSTEEN'S RISING FORCE album. Doogie White (ex-RAINBOW) will once again handle the lead vocals on the CD, which is expected to surface in early 2007.
