 (5 Customer Reviews)
Released in 1993, THE SECURITY OF ILLUSION signaled a rebirth of sorts for Canadian prog rock popsters Saga, as earlier members Jim Gilmour (keyboards) and Steve Negus (drums) were welcomed back into the fold -- for the first time since 1985's BEHAVIOUR. And as evidenced by the music, the result of the reunion returned the group straight back to their heady early-'80s period, especially on the downright vicious rockers "Mind Over Matter" and "Stand Up," as well as the percussive-heavy album closer, "Without You." Instead of being influenced by what was going on in the rock world circa this time period (here's a hint...well, whatever, nevermind), Saga stick to their guns on THE SECURITY OF ILLUSION, and come up with a release that nearly managed to out-rock their Canadian competitor at the time, Rush.
Reissue 1993 W/ 1 Bonus Track. Security Of Illusion Music Saga Security Of Illusion Songs Security Of Illusion Music Review Average Rating: (4.6 out of 5 stars)   The best remaster in the collection
I bought this CD when it first came out in 1993. I loved the songs, but the sound quality was just awful. After buying most of the remasters, I really thought the remaster for "Security Of Illusion" would be a little better than the original. After listening to it, I was wrong. All of the re-issue discs sound great, but this one is proof that the remastering job is absolutely superb.

Saga at its ususal best
A Saga fan since 1981 when ON THE LOOSE was a hit on radio. Then started buying vinyl. Couldn't wait for each new release. After going to CDs I have just begun to up grade my collection. This from 2001 is amazing stuff and not so different from the Saga I have known and loved all along. Have both their DVDs and highly recommend them too.

Well, Saga-Fans, those so-called "Remasters" of their albums unfortunately turn out poorly in every department - graphics/pictures, as well as sound aren't any better or more improved compared to the original album releases...!! Also, the Bonus Track on this Remaster is an awful acoustic/demo recording of the title track "Security of Illusion" - Michael Sadler's usually great voice folds here ...
So why bother buying it !?
That's simple: For any die-hard fan out there who hasn't got the complete catalogue of albums yet; and further ...if you purchase 10 of Saga's Remasters (coupons are included with CDs !), you receive an exclusive Box from Canada for those CDs ... !!
No doubt about it ... the music on this album is great - not the typical Saga-Sound, but real heavy ...remember ...this is the first release after Saga's (original 5-man-lineup) reunion in 1992 after being split up for about 6 years, so they had to find together again...Enjoyable after all criticism !!
Greets from Germany,

For the past eight years she has been building a strong solo career, and has independently released her CD “Love Is A Rock”. With songs like “Honey” and “Is This Just A Dream”, Love Is A Rock has a very strong forecast.Before going solo, Aysha performed with the female group Girls In The Mix. “Girls” opened for such performers as Zapp w/Roger and WAR. Aysha went on to perform with Ronkat and the Funklectiks featuring Grammy Award nominated writer, Ron Spearman. Eight years ago, Aysha made the move to strike out on her own to pursue her solo career, performing in venues throughout the Los Angeles area. Among these local venues Aysha was invited and performed at the prestigious BB King’s Blues Club. Aysha has developed a style that will soothe most any soul. Her velvety voice is sultry and smooth with a jazzy edge, and with influences such as Sade, Toni Braxton, Phyllis Hyman and Chante Moore, one can only imagine the vibe. Co-writing the majority of her songs, Aysha has been fortunate to work with some very successful producers and arrangers such as Monty Seward (Howard Hewett), Donald Tavié (Lakeside, Norman Connors) and Kevin Dorsey (Michael Jackson), to name a few. One of Aysha’s most current projects included on her CD is a remake of Atlantic Starr’s “Send For Me” arranged by Donald Tavié.In August of 2006, Roc-Life Radio chose Aysha as one of the Top 20 Unsigned New Artists, which airs on Live365.com and became the #1 Independent Artist on their station in October 2006. Her songs “Is This Just A Dream”, “Let Me Be The One”, “Honey”, “More Than Any Words”, and “Send For Me” now play in rotation on all of their play lists.Also in August 2006, Aysha was approached by radio host Skip “The Funktologist” of “A Funk Above The Rest” show, which airs on Denver’s KUVO 89.3 every Saturday night. He requested to play her song “Honey” which made its debut on his station September 10, 2006. He has now added three more of her songs, “Is This Just A Dream”, “High” and Send For Me” to his play list and will be including “Honey” on an upcoming compilation disc “The Best of A Funk Above The Rest” which will have distribution in Europe as well as the US. In November, Aysha did a live radio interview with Skip, which generated a very favorable response from the listeners.Most recently, Aysha has been featured in three different Independent Artist magazines, U Magazine of Kingsharkentertainment.com for the March 2008 issue, BIG The Magazine of bighthemagazine.com for the September 2008 issue, and Nine5Four Magazine of nine5four.com for the October 2008 issue.Currently ...
