DAVID ZAFFIRO – Yesterday’s Left Behind [Digitally Remastered 2020]

“Yesterday’s Left Behind” (1994) remains as the last DAVID ZAFFIRO solo album and the last from the 2020 reissue series from his career.
Here Zaffiro blend the melodic rock orientation of his first two albums with the acoustic mix of the third adding a certain hard rock edge. As happened with all, sound & production are pristine, even more with this clear remastering job.
“Winds Of September” represents albums leading cut, not the least of which being how it is its heaviest (noting the perfect fusing of the up-tempo electric and gritty acoustic) but also features a guest vocal performance from Holy Soldier front man Stephen Patrick. This one would…

DAVID ZAFFIRO – Surrender Absolute [Digitally Remastered 2020] *EXCLUSIVE*

We already featured at 0dayRox the remastered reissues of DAVID ZAFFIRO‘s two first solo albums, now we have here in exclusive “Surrender Absolute“, his third effort from 1992.
According to the time and with the success of Mr. BIG, TESLA, etc, Zaffiro added to “Surrender Absolute” some acoustic guitar mix to the AOR / Melodic Rock style of the 2 previous albums.
Also, and while David still perform some lead vocals, we find here a trained lead singer – the majority of the tracks are fronted by talented Randall Waller, who is better known for his work in AVION and Tunesmith Records, recorded with Mutt Lange.

DAVID ZAFFIRO – The Other Side (1989) [Digitally Remastered 2020] *EXCLUSIVE*

Known for his renown axemanship with the iconic Christian metal band Bloodgood, DAVID ZAFFIRO surprised in 1989 with his first solo album “The Other Side” where most the material, both in songwriting & production, embraced the melodic rock / AOR sound from the era.
Indeed, while Bloodgood albums were rich in melody and some hard rock groove, all were US metal in essence. With “The Other Side”, ZAFFIRO delivers a smooth collection of AORish tunes with that polished, pristine production so ‘1989’.
Many years out of print, this 2020 digitally remastered reissue is more than welcomed, for many to discover this very good album / artist, and a great addition to your collection if you already heard the LP back in the Eighties.
