In the 70’s Victor Peraino recorded on Polydor Records in England with the father of theatrical rock Arthur Brown, know for his million sell hit “Fire” Arthur Brown’s Kingdom Come “Journey” was critically acclaimed as a landmark, in the music industry the first recording to feature a drum machine. Victor played keyboards. mellotron. moog synthesizer. vcs3, theremin & vocals on this ground-breaking album. He also worked with such notable artist as Queen, Manfred Mann, Dave Edmunds, Brian Eno, Daevid Allen of Gong , Hawkwind and The Edgar Broughton Band. After Arthur Brown’s Kingdom Come disintegrated following the release of the wonderful “Journey”, US keyboard player Victor Peraino somehow retained the name, releasing No Man’s Land in ’75 under the name Victor Peraino’s Kingdom Come, reissued by Black Widow in 2010. After about 40 years, Victor and Arthur decide to collaborate again, resurrecting the project Kingdom Come: in this new musical adventure, reproduce in a new guise some of the best songs included in “No Man’s Land” (Demon of Love, Sun Sets Sail, Empires of Steel), take up the theme of the wonderful “Time Captives” from “Journey” turning it into a cross-section sidereal enriched by the magnificence of space keyboards, revitalize ina progressive key two old classics like “Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood” and “I Put a Spell On You “… but they also offer some brand new compositions (We Only Come to Help You, Future, the title track, Walk with Angels) deploying an odyssey of lovely sounds, underpinned by the omnipresent as ever presence of Mellotron, Moog, VCS3, in an uninterrupted flow of emotions.
