The weakest link from Chinawhite is singer Don Feltges. He strains his voice and therefore shouts too much. Musically speaking Chinawhite is an interesting band, at least if you like melodic Prog rock; the organ parts recall good old Deep Purple. Chinawhite are at their best in up tempo songs like “Challenges”, “Inside” and “The Storm Rages On”, where especially the guitar solos from Peter Cox add an extra dimension to the songs. Stinkers are the syrupy “How Many Miles” and the last 4 minutes – containing sea sounds – of the last song “Wings Of The Wind”. I think Chinawhite have a lot more to offer, but it isn’t all coming through. Better luck next time. (Martien Koolen)
