When it was originally released in 1997, Erik Norlander's debut solo CD, THRESHOLD, turned heads and gathered praise from the press and fans alike. With liner notes and a glowing endorsement from prog keyboard guru Keith Emerson, THRESHOLD stood apart from the many other solo keyboardist albums that flooded the market. Erik's strong compositional vision, state-of-the-art production sensibility, command of vintage technology and masterful keyboard technique permanently burned THRESHOLD into progressive rock history. Virtuoso keyboardist Erik Norlander was joined by drummer / percussionist Greg Ellis (The Matrix films, Vas, Steve Stevens) and bassist Don Schiff (Lana Lane, Rocket Scientists) to create a prog rock power trio whose depth and range matched past greats such as ELP, Rush and Cream. Now for 2004, Erik has assembled an astounding 2CD reissue of THRESHOLD complete with 10 (!) bonus tracks and a high-resolution Quicktime video of Erik performing his legendary "Trantor Station" live at the California ProgWest progressive music festival. In addition, the Special Edition package includes an ultra-deluxe 20-page full-color CD booklet with extensive liner notes by Erik, Keith Emerson, the contributing musicians and numerous others contributors. The whole album has been remastered for 2004 using the world's best studio equipment including vintage Telefunken and Pultec devices collected and meticulously restored by Erik.
