Walking In Avalon

Christopher Cross 1998 album titled "Walking In Avalon" was originally released with Double Discs. The first Disc is an album of the new material that they are working on at that time. The second Disc is a live "Best of" concert recorded on 10 March,1998 at the Galaxy Theater in Santa Ana, California, USA., a small indoor venue.
