The Road Back Home

The Road Back Home is the second compilation album by the Swedish progressive rock band The Flower Kings. It is a double album with some of the group's shorter and more straightforward songs, rather than their usual long/complex epic songs. All of the songs have been remastered and most have been remixed. Some have even been reworked, with new guitar solos, or new lead vocals, or different backing vocals, etc.
