Alibi (Vandenberg Album)
''Alibi'' is the third studio album by Dutch hard rock band Vandenberg (band), Vandenberg, released on 29 August 1985 by Atco Records. This was Vandenberg's final studio album for 35 years until their reunion in 2020. Background It was recorded in the Netherlands for the first time on a Vandenberg album. Following the previous album, Adrian Vandenberg painted cover art, and in 2007, 75 artwork graphs of this work were released in commemoration of Adrian's individual painting exhibition, Stuck Between Rock and an Art Place, in Antwerp. Bert Heerink has since emphasized vocals in ''Alibi'' regarding the sound production of this work. The two early albums say that for me, the production of the opening of the song seems to be emphasized. Cover art The cover art featured Mexico, Mexican Maya civilization and crocodiles from the ground in the red sunset. Like its predecessor, its artwork was created by guitarist Adrian Vandenberg himself. Track listing Music and lyrics by Adria ...

Crocodiles
Crocodiles (family Crocodylidae) or true crocodiles are large semiaquatic reptiles that live throughout the tropics in Africa, Asia, the Americas and Australia. The term crocodile is sometimes used even more loosely to include all extant members of the order Crocodilia, which includes the alligators and caimans (family Alligatoridae), the gharial and false gharial (family Gavialidae) among other extinct taxa. Although they appear similar, crocodiles, alligators and the gharial belong to separate biological families. The gharial, with its narrow snout, is easier to distinguish, while morphological differences are more difficult to spot in crocodiles and alligators. The most obvious external differences are visible in the head, with crocodiles having narrower and longer heads, with a more V-shaped than a U-shaped snout compared to alligators and caimans. Another obvious trait is that the upper and lower jaws of the crocodiles are the same width, and the teeth in the lower jaw ...

Hard Rock
Hard rock or heavy rock is a loosely defined subgenre of rock music typified by aggressive vocals and distorted electric guitars. Hard rock began in the mid-1960s with the garage, psychedelic and blues rock movements. Some of the earliest hard rock music was produced by the Kinks, the Who, The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Cream, Vanilla Fudge, and the Jimi Hendrix Experience. In the late 1960s, bands such as Blue Cheer, the Jeff Beck Group, Iron Butterfly, Led Zeppelin, Golden Earring, Steppenwolf and Deep Purple also produced hard rock. The genre developed into a major form of popular music in the 1970s, with the Who, Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple being joined by Queen, AC/DC, Aerosmith, Kiss, and Van Halen. During the 1980s, some hard rock bands moved away from their hard rock roots and more towards pop rock.V. Bogdanov, C. Woodstra and S. T.

Burlington, Ontario
Burlington is a city in the Regional Municipality of Halton at the northwestern end of Lake Ontario in Ontario, Canada.
