Something unexpected is happening with this new best-of release...There’s a lot of buzz surrounding the upcoming Night Ranger release, BEST OF NIGHT RANGER, and it’s creating a really great debate among the fans. A lot of people aren’t sure what to make of a career-spanning collection that leans so heavily into the band’s recent history, but the reaction has taken a surprisingly positive turn.

Instead of just looking backward, listeners are discovering that the energy this band has kept alive in the studio over the last 15 years is the real deal. Keyboardist Eric Levy opens up about stepping into a legendary legacy and finding a way to keep the music moving forward without losing that classic arena rock soul. Some fans think this era might actually rival their biggest years, while others are just starting to realize how much great music they’ve missed out on.
