Brought in a few more things this week...Vinyl... - Sleep: Dopesmoker [2xLP black vinyl] - Scorpions: Virgin Killer CD... - Culprit: Guilty As Charged [CD reissue from 2000] - Judas Priest: Jugulator - Judas Priest: '98 Live Meltdown - Judas Priest: Redeemer Of Souls [deluxe 2xCD] - Suicidal Tendencies: s/t album - V/A: A Tribute To Judas Priest - Legends Of Metal Culprit was the very first metal band I ever saw live! A little dated now, but I do still enjoy the heck out of this one! On the flip side, I am feeling like I may have taken the Judas Priest obsession a little too far with Demolition. I had generally avoided the Ripper Owens era... and while I think the guy has a decent voice, this record seems über-cheesy in a bad way, even for my questionable tastes, haha. -------------------- I am a robot... bleep blop bloop

I went to a "garage sale" on Sunday in which this guy has about 60,000+ LPs for sale, all organized like a store, and very clean. Spent hours digging around and listening to him go on and on about various conspiracy theories and how things aren't as good as they were in the 60s-70s, haha. But, I did walk away with the following LPs and will be going back for more soon.All Vinyl... - Accept: Breaker - Accept: Restless And Wild - Cactus: 'Ot 'N' Sweaty - The Doors: Full Circle - Iron Butterfly: Sun And Steel - Iron Butterfly: Scorching Beauty - Jethro Tull: This Was - Kansas: s/t album - Kansas: Song For America - Alexis Korner: Bootleg Him! [2xLP] - More: Warhead - Nazareth: Rampant - Nazareth: Hair Of The Dog - Ozzy Osbourne: The Ultimate Sin - Steppenwolf: At Your Birthday Party - Tomita: Kosmos - Yes: Yesterdays - Yes: Classic Yes - Yes: Yesshows [2xLP] - ZZ Top: Tres Hombres Admittedly, a lot of this was filling gaps in my collection (and a touch of butt rock), but still a fun way to waste a Sunday afternoon. -------------------- I am a robot... bleep blop bloop

Hey AR, this Hawkwind album sounds pretty decent and it appears that Dave Brock was actually involved in the 1997 mixing of this particular release. It's got a nice selection of tunes from the period, similar to Space Ritual, but includes tracks from Warrior On The Edge Of Time and a live version of The Watcher, which is kind of cool to hear. Worth picking up for the right price.Hey Dave, I'm with you on 5.1 mixes for certain prog records and agree that Steven Wilson is pretty much THE BEST at putting these together. Also agreed on metal releases... stereo is more than fine for most music (with good speaker placement & separation) and is generally my preferred way to take stuff in. I do dig the 5.1 releases, but it's kind of like a 3-D viewing experience for me... less immersive and more novelty. I do still try to get the 5.1 mix editions of certain albums, so definitely not dismissing it. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out over time, as formats evolve, etc. -------------------- I am a robot... bleep blop bloop

The new Ace Frehley album is fucking excellent. There's two clunkers ("The Joker" and "Immortal Pleasures") and one sorta boring tune (the instrumental) but the rest of the album rocks more than enough to make up for those. "Gimme A Feelin" http://youtu.be/tjFJTZFL4fc All the best, PAULIE -------------------- Voivoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood! ----------------- DIMESLAND http://youtu.be/2LtFOX6JdVo
