LARS ERIC MATTSON'S VISION - "Sail Away" From Upcoming 25th Anniversary Debut Album Remaster Streaming

In 1991, guitarist Lars Eric Mattson wanted to find a better singer than the guy he had been working with previously and also had the urge to put a real band together. He recorded a few songs with Bjorn Lodin but at that time could not find a way to work together, so Lars continued to search until a friend intoduced him to another Swede, Conny Lind. They met, had a few beers and recorded some rough demos and everything seemed to click instantly. Conny came up with the band name Vision and soon they were recording their debut album. 

Lars already had a few albums released in Japan and Europe, and several Japanese labels were interested in Vision. After a bidding war they signed with Apollon Inc/FEMS for Japan and Roadrunner for Europe. The album did quite well and they did three videos for the Japanese market. The Japanese label had them change the name from just Vision to Lars Eric's Mattsson's Vision.

The album was very successful in Japan and the band would have has a glorious future ahead if it was not for the looming bankrupcy of theire record label. In 2017, 25 years after the original release the album was remastered in Lion Music's Lion's Cage II studio. This is the first in a series of at least five Vision re-issues.
