that celebrate Kai Hansen's first post-Pumpkin foray- Heading For Tomorrow. This is the second best Gamma Ray release, a notch slightly below Kai's latest opus- Somewhere Out in Space. Ralf Scheepers gets the nod for vocalist on Heading For Tomorrow, and he definitely delivers a high-octane performance. His pipes are powerful, which is an understatement. Scheeper's style and range evokes that of Judas Priest's Rob Halford, albeit with noticably greater vocal strength. Gamma Ray's first set benefits greatly from Scheeper's presence, but the tunes stand their own ground. "Lust For Life" and "Free Time" crush. -David Newman 1998
