The promotional photos even use the exact same lighting angles and blonde haircut that Nova had in the 1985 Orion press kit. The songwriting credits list 'Orion Advanced Audio Synthesis Group' instead of individual composers. Did anyone ever see Luna Gray perform live, or was she exclusively a satellite playback act? -- Graham Sánchez Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of MindSpring Enterprises. ------------------------------------------------------------ From dmartinez@cam.ac.uk Sat Jul 15 18:44:31 1995 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!eunet-de!hansebox!cam!dmartinez From: dmartinez@cam.ac.uk (Dmitri Martínez) Newsgroups: alt.fan.nova-hart Subject: Re: Luna Gray's 'Glass Hours' (1990) vs SYNTHESIS - the comparison Message-ID: <1995Jul15.184431.1767@cam.ac.uk> Date: Sat, 15 Jul 1995 18:44:31 GMT References: <1995Jul15.003331.8212@mindspring.com> Organization: University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory NNTP-Posting-Host: cam.ac.uk X-Newsreader: NewsWatcher 2.0b24 Lines: 8 In article <1995Jul15.003331.8212@mindspring.com>, gsanchez@mindspring.com (Graham Sánchez) writes: > Why did Orion push Luna Gray so aggressively in 1990 right after Nova disappeared?
