Description:Special Deluxe Collector's Edition / Fully Remastered Audio shaped from 24 BIT digital technology / Including Living On the Edge, Fantasy of Love and Carry On / 12- page full color booklet - 3,000-word essay, enhanced artwork, and new interviews. WITH THEIR SELF-TITLED debut album generating quite a stir on the hard rock scene, Axe then delivered their glorious second album 'Living On The Edge' another Melodic Pomp Rock masterpiece for the MCA/CURB label. Produced by Tony Reale, a man whose credits encompassed a wide variety of acts, from pop music to edgier rock, the sound drew heavily from the melodic rock sounds of the time and is blessed with pin-point vocal harmonies and lavish arrangements. It was the sound of an exciting new rock act pushing their way to the front of the pack, looking to capitalize on their hunger and demonstrating great compositional skills. Strange then that the label decided to issue a cover song as the album's first track; 'I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch)' originally cut by the Four Tops. It was clear that MCA had very little understanding of the band's fan base, preferring instead to pitch them as a pop outfit without defining their real style. The album's final song 'For A Little While' is a far more representative track, blending melody and power with a well-developed Pomp Rock sheen. In common with many other acts from this era, the behind-the-scenes machinations of the business was about to rear it's ugly head. Sadly, for Axe, their label president was replaced, and the band were let go. But fortunately, there was a light at the end of the tunnel when they signed to ATCO records and begun a new chapter in their career, with the recording of 'Offering' also reissued by Rock Candy Records.
