For some unknown reason I got nostalgic about a week ago and went on a early April Wine buying spree... they started coming in along with some other goodies.
April Wine - The April Wine Collection (4 cd box set of 'The Singles' - 'The Rock Songs' 'Vintage Wine' 'Live') They have their fair share of cheesey songs, but they also have a lot of good stuffApril Wine - Stand Back Voivod - Warriors of Ice (i agree with all the comments others have made about this) Crack The Sky - All Access (dvd with 2 concerts from 200  -------------------- yawn

Wow, that does look like some cool stuff. I don't buy box sets all that often, mostly because of the all out expense, but these mini-LPs are the coolest format to do so... awesome packaging and typically nice 24-bit mastering work done in Japan.I've picked up Japan mini-LP releases from Led Zeppelin, Yes, Flower Travellin' Band, Area, Ibis, a few others and true enough, they are boner worthy releases. If I could afford it, I'd primarily buy CDs like this all the time. Nice purchase John! On another note, I received a cool collection of tunes from 1970s purveyors of heavy rock, Granicus! This collection, called "Thieves, Liars, and Traitors" puts together demos, rehearsals, and rare tracks from 1973-1974. All newly discovered/recovered materials remastered and released by the band themselves. Rough recordings for sure, but well worth the low price and good to actually buy directly from the band. - Granicus: Thieves, Liars, and Traitors -------------------- I am a robot... bleep blop bloop

Nope. No cure in sight. By the way, I like April Wine. -------------------- What the fuck is wrong with drinking tea?

Those Black Sabbath boxes are really neat and a great acquisition.Lately: VOIVOD - Warriors of Ice Only Death is Real, the amazing Hellhammer book. I think it's great that Tom did such a wonderful work with this one, it once again reminded me of how much a fan of both HH and CF (and Triptykon) I am. -------------------- "Forty-five moments of perfection translated through a cautionary escape into the perils of the mundane, the inherent entropy in ultimate order, and the potential threats of eternal, unchecked apathy in civilization; all cloaked in musical expression so thoughtful, creative and forward thinking that almost a quarter-century later, few can even comprehend it, much less match it."

Still prefer the sound of my extremely thrashed out original vinyl copy but they did a nice job w/ the CDs.
Yeah, I own the lp, the cassette, the Price Killers edition, the cd and the deluxe set... oh well.... -------------------- trrrrr ta trrrrr ta trrrrr ta trrrrr ta trrrrr ta trrrrr

Absolutely man! Was listening to it recently and was reminded at how good this record really is. Pretty dark tunes, for certain, haha. Found these on my way home from work today. - Angels Of Light: New Mother
- Deathrow: Raging Steel [2008 reissue]
- The Doors: Waiting For The Sun [expanded edition] For $7, the Deathrow was the find of the month. -------------------- I am a robot... bleep blop bloop

So Schroeder, I think you should focus on something else since you have so many Sab sets already
