Other fine tune I've picked up recently. - Blue Öyster Cult: s/t album [remaster] - Blue Öyster Cult: Tyranny And Mutation [remaster] - Cream: Fresh Cream [remaster] - Bill Cobham: Spectrum - King Crimson: Starless And Bible Black [40th Anniversary Edition CD/DVD] - Kreator: Pleasure To Kill [remaster] - Las Cruces: Ringmaster - Klaus Schulze: Timewind [2-disc special edition/remaster] - Whiplash: Insult To Injury Have had Pleasure To Kill on CD for ages, but this remaster was only $6, so seemed worth it... As any Voivodfan knows, those old Noise CDs were not ideal. The King Crimson reissue is amazing, as is that Klaus Schulze. Shit, was stoked as hell to find the Las Cruces, Whiplash and Billy Cobham discs as well. -------------------- I am a robot... bleep blop bloop

Have no clue how this was never in my collection, but it is now: JUDAS PRIEST - Live in LondonMastodon/Flaming Lips - Spoonful Weighs a Ton (split pink vinyl 7" - Record Store Day release) Mastodon/Fiest - Commotion/Black Tongue (7" Record Store Day Release - the bands covered each others songs) Not sure how I really feel about RSD especially since I don't have any local stores to go to and it seems most of the product gets scarfed up by people just looking to put it on eBay for people like me who can't buy it in the store, and I'm sure there's a lot of store owners who get the product just to make a shit load more by holding on the side to put on eBay. The majority of the product specially released for this day just doesn't seem to get directly to the hands of the people who really want it for their collection. Does anyone here get to go to RSD and actually purchase what they are looking for at the prices they are suppose to be sold at? -------------------- yawn

Same for me... I don't think I ever actually make it out on "record store day" but to hit the shops all the time anyway. Seattle does have tons of indie stores that participate, so sure we could take part if we made a point of it.Went to a record show today, but it was a bust, so did some poking around in the city and came home with these CDs. - Cluster: Cluster '71 - The Doors: Strange Days [40th Anniversary edition] - Esoteric: Paragon Of Dissonance [DOOOOOOM!] - Flower Travelin' Band: Anywhere - Judas Priest: Rocka Rolla - Manilla Road: The Deluge - Swans: The Great Annihilator - Uriah Heep: Look At Yourself [expanded deluxe edition, real nice!] Haha, I have all those Lard discs except 70s Rock Must Die. The others are great, so should probably make a point to grab that one here sometime. -------------------- I am a robot... bleep blop bloop

"Oh cool, you found it, now if you could just return it that would be nice" LMFAO!!!!The IOMMI book was great. Lots of great insight, and all of the DELUXE Sabbath discs are worth picking up. Plenty of great live, unreleased, and demos to make them worthwhile. Speaking of books, I'm currently ready the unauthoized Judas Priest: Defenders of the Faith biography which is crammed with amazing info and tons of interviews from past members and quotes from current members made over the years. The author was trying to get the band to authorize this book but they put so many restrictions on what he could write, so he released it way... so much I never knew that the band kind of kept secret over the years. Todays mail: Pantera - Cowboys From Hell (3 disc set (remastered/live/demos) this is the one I should have purchased instead of the 2 disc set... oh well, got 'em both now RUSH- ABC 1974: Angora Ballroom Cleveland Ohio 26 August 1974 (The First American Broadcast) -------------------- yawn

Just wanted to mention while I hated Cowboys from Hell....I just ran across Vulgar Display on youtube......, that thing kills! His guitar sound was way better...I even thought Phil sounded pretty cool. Great album.

Not a CD, but a book: WORLDS AWAY.Fantastic. -------------------- "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."

Not sure what my opinion is about it, but I think it's one of those albums that you really need to sit down & pay attention to... like early prog, which is what it sounds exactly like. Definitely a combination of Opeth's Heritage album and Steven Wilson latest solo material rolled into one.
Hey Dave, I hadn't really been paying attention to this one until I saw the video for Drag Ropes on Youtube a couple of weeks ago became kind of obsessed with it. Drag Ropes I've since heard the full album a few times and am finding a lot going on... way mellow, gentle, and dark as hell. A beautiful recording, I think. The CD/BluRay version will be mine, haha! I'll bet the 5.1 mix is insane. -------------------- I am a robot... bleep blop bloop

That gash on Mikael's head is fuckin' gnarly. I love his write up about it. He should open the concerts with a 30 minute stand up comedy routine. He is funny as hell.I listened to the 5.1 blu ray mix the other day, and this is definitely the way to experience the album. It's something you have to absorb and let it absorb you, just like Sw's solo material and Opeth's Heritage (which are all amazing in 5.1). I wasn't thrilled with the drag the ropes video. It reminded me of South Park meets Tim Burton. Just not my style of animation. Not a cd, but I did complete my collection of the Yellow Submarine McFarlane figures. Being bored & lonely makes me go to Amazon & Ebay and buy things I've always wanted but had enough sense before not to buy. Yellow Submarine & The Wall are the 2 movies that combined art & music and destroyed my mind at an early age. These 2 films and their impact on my young brain are responsible for my addiction. -------------------- yawn
