notes
The much sought after album Planet 3 featuring Jay Graydon - MUSIC FROM THE PLANET - is finally available again and is better than ever. Remastered by Jay and with a previously unreleased Planet 3 song - DREAMERS.
All songs are written by the creative songwriters - two time Grammy winner and 12 times nominated Los Angeles top songwriter, recording artist, guitarist, producer, arranger, engineer, and more - Jay Graydon, and his band partners Clif Magness and Glen Ballard. This stellar constellation of brilliant music master minds will offer the listener many hours of sonic pleasure.
Jay, Clif and Glen are the musicians behind all the performances and instruments in all songs. Jay's guitar is omnipresent throughout the album, sometimes aggressive and pushy, sometimes smooth and delicious - always intelligently played with restraint and Jay's pronounced unique guitar sound.
The music style is adult contemporary pop with many strong melodies - power ballads mixed with tough 80s synth rock, in the spirit of Toto, Chicago and the like. The ballad "I Don't Want to Say Goodnight" was included on the soundtrack for the film "Navy Seals".
In the liner notes for the "live recording" track #3 you will get a hint that this gig was done with a touch of musicians' inside humor.
Recorded by Jay, Clif, and Glen at Garden Rake Studios.

ONE OF THE BEST CD'S I HAVE EVER HEARD IN ALL MY LIFE
Definately recommend. New dimension AOR I dreamed about
author: DaveReally good. I love 'The day the earth stood still' but the whole thing is great. Dreamers- superb!. Well, this album is classic. I can feel this and I've only had it a couple of days (I thought I'd write the review now cause they said it should be short!). So many solo's and musicianship that's not only top class but with a definate intelligence to it you don't neccesarily always have in the great aor albums. Really good lyrics in the same sense and the vocal sounds, performances and solo's are impossible to not feel. I will be buying another asap for a friend. Also to note it sounds soft and 'cool' in a way that it dosen't seem to give that minor headache with constant playing or at the wrong time of day etc. I was saving the day I bought this cause I knew it would be good (I got into aor a couple of years ago collecting sld vinyl of everything airplay and that time) but I must say I'm kind of relieved I did'nt wait any longer. In other words, I have bought a lot of cd's recently too and I think this album should without doubt be given priority if you haven't got it. Alternative lovers get your ass over here and see why AOR is the future. Now, I'm going to have some lunch and blast it. Lucky me.
awsome, a must have for every AOR fan!
author: audunwords cant describe how cool this cd is, the tunes shows a brilliant team of writers..buy it!!!
Ear candy for music lovers
author: J.EngfeldtAfter several years searching for this CD, I finally found this record on CD baby.I'm playing it non-stop and my swedish opus speakers loves the music.
Fantastic album, Planet 3 is just a great band.
author: Lennart NordinThe CD is just great. You just let the songs go on. No program installation nescessary, the songs speak for themselves.

Well, it might not be quite "cool" yet to be listening to 80's pop but it's pretty much a well known fact that as far as melody and instrumentation goes, 80's pop is pretty darn hard to beat. So rather than embarrass yourself writing down those 1-800-80's-Pop shopping channel numbers for all "The Greatest Hits Of..," just click here! Indulge in this trip back through the sounds of Chicago, Toto and Kenny Loggins. Just stay away from the AquaNet, for pete's sake!
What a killer CD!
author: Nathan EusonWhat a killer CD! These guys are very tallented. Clif's vocals are great and Jay can shred like a madman. All of their songs are constructed so well.
Indulge in this trip back through the sounds of Chicago, Toto and Kenny Loggins.

Desert Island Disc, if there ever was a need for one
author: Eric RyanI'll NEVER, EVER get sick of hearing the songs on this record. These three superstars need to be reunited (forced at gunpoint if necessary) to make a follow-up record. Another record which I feel this strongly about, which was also put together by 3 musical geniuses without much fanfare is Sahara Snow (Rick Springfield, Bob Marlette, Tim Pierce). Come to think of it, I'll just put these 2 great CDs on repeat for the next few days!!
