This post tells us the old website https://www.crackthesky.com/ isn't up to date anymore. I had my doubts about the old side when the store didn't function well.
https://crackthesky.net/events/ mentions a couple of more shows, including a return to the Recher.
I finally got myself a copy of From The Wood, the semi-acoustic CTS. At first listening I was more or less confirmed in my prejudice that I wouldn't like it that much, because I was missing the twin-guitars, the at times symphonic keyboard-patterns and the Gilmouresk guitarsolo's. But after giving it a few more listens including one with the headphones on I must say this is old-fashioned CTS in lyrics, arrangements etc. but this time with other instruments. It's like an acoustic White Music. Yeah, glad I bought it.
One of the track on From The Wood, Don't Close Your Eyes, was written by John Palumbo in 1988 for the glamhardrockers Kix. Crack The Sky turned the power ballad into an Americana-like tearjerker.
Here's the original by Kix:
Here's the new version:
The CD contains a more stripped down version of the track as one of the two bonuscuts.
