Search - Axel Rudi Pell :: Ballads 3

Since his 1989 solo debut Wild Obsession and no later than the 1991 breakthrough, Nasty Reputation, Axel Rudi Pell has been a firm fixture in the German Melodic Hard Rock scene. In the musical microcosm Axel has always had everything in its traditional place, all the while still moving it forward continuously.
