1986 - Self Finance

This is Beyond first self finance album. Not really considered as their official studio album. The sign of Beyond diverse rock style and modern approach already present. 

If you haven't listen to this, do it now! This is Beyond most original sounds which is deeply root in hard rock and blues. It was no surprise that this album did not make it into mainstream Cantonese music listener. This was so underground. The hits is in Goodbye Faith, where it was regularly played on concert. Then Yesterday's Footprints (Old Footprints) is also a regular play. In 2005, all three member resurrected the first track Waiting Forever, a very hard rock in nature.  Long Way Without Friends  is oldies blues song, where the guitar is shredding all the way. This song will later adopted into their first professional album re-titled and re-arranged as Oriental Treasures. Most of other songs were forgotten by fans and the band.
