Please read our Pre-order & Despatch Information HERE

This was Asher’s debut album originally released in 1987 - a haunting, lyrical suite with a progressive, classical, quietly epic feel to it, and a deeply evocative nature where each piece conjures up a striking visual narrative

Produced and arranged with original Genesis guitarist Anthony Phillips (who plays on the album) 'Open Secret' also features rock legend Andy Latimer of Camel, and Tony Freer of The Enid

Having been remastered since its original release this edition includes five bonus tracks not on the original 1987 album

Two of the bonus tracks include ‘Little Wolf’, a piano piece previously released on Asher's album ‘Single As Love’ (under the title ‘The King's Wolf’) and ‘Open Secret (vocal version)’, a recording from 2005

The three other bonus tracks ('The Power of Love', 'Song of the Morning' and 'Shine Brightly') were all recorded during the original sessions for the album but have remained unreleased until now. They have been newly mixed for inclusion on this re-issue
