Recommended Posts

I'll probably get censored for this. I bought 11:

 

:headbanger:

Scorpions - World Wide Live

Scorpions - The Best of Scorpions 20th Century Masters

Dokken - The Very Best of

Accept - Balls To The Wall

 

These two were found at heavyharmonies.com: Thanks Dan!

Romeo's Daughter (bought on ebay)

Shania Twain - Beginnings 1989 - 1990 (I can't stop playing this one. She's coming to the Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver on July 15)

 

Missing Persons - Rhyme & Reason

Missing Persons - Lost Tracks (The "Rest Of" from the vaults)

Keiko Matsui - White owl (CD + DVD). Hey, she plays wicked piano. I saw her twice in concert in Seattle AND she signed all my other CDs. 18 in total!

Many of her songs are catchy. There is no singing and a great band.

 

Animotion - Strange Behavior (rare and out-of-print, bought on ebay)

 

Norah Jones - Come Away With Me (CD + DVD).

MJ, I listened to Wanderlust again. I love the album. But, I have to know, what did you think of Perfect World. I loved the album, but what about Just Like A Pill. I don't know much about Pink, but I know this was the only song I'd heard that was good. (I did say when it came out how much I liked it.)

MJ, I listened to Wanderlust again.  I love the album.  But, I have to know, what did you think of Perfect World.  I loved the album, but what about Just Like A Pill.  I don't know much about Pink, but I know this was the only song I'd heard that was good.  (I did say when it came out how much I liked it.)

This is pretty much what I thought when I heard Perfect World doing that song~~~~~~~> :o

 

I mean.....it was OK when Pink did it.......I was just surprised someone like Kelly Hansen would do it..... It's "kinda" grown on me.......kinda.

 

 

As for the rest of the album..........I LOVE IT!!!!

 

Their version of Xenon's "Overnight Sensation" is as (almost) good as Xenon's........and that's saying ALOT coming from me, 'cuz I LOVE Xenon!!! :lol:

 

"I Believe In You" is probably my favorite........just love that one!!

Yeah, it was a surprise Kelly Hansen did it. I read an interview where he said the guy from Frontiers just picked the songs and gave the to him. One of the reasons I like the Pink song is that I can use it to get people to listen to the album by introducing it as "just a cover of a Pink song" or "do you know this song" and then maybe getting them to seriously listen to the album.

The next time I go down to Seattle, I'm going to look for Wanderlust and Perfect World. I haven't tried Virgin Megastore or HMV yet. A&B Sound don't have it in their computer. I was going to bid on a CD by Alexa but it is bidding at GBP23.00 or US$43.57!!!

 

I'm also going to write down a list of some of the bands you guys are listening to and bring them with me to Seattle. There are 3 maybe 4 used CD stores down there. One is only five blocks left of Tower records.

 

Also, I may be going to Japan during the last week of April. So, if there are any CDs that are only available in Japan let me know. There are a few used CD stores in Miyazaki City that I have been to and they have a good selection of U.S. music.

Check out the Wallingford neighborhood, west of UW (west side of I-5)... a bunch of little used stores on 45th Street. And don't pass up Dick's Drive-In! Killer burgers, cheep... :drink:

    • I posed him that exact question on his discord page as to what his future plans are.... He said he plans to relax for a bit, do his You Tube thing, keep writing new music and then will decide how to release that music.  He said as of now he's thinking he'll either do a solo thing or form his own band.  He didn't say this but I'd sort of envision a Daughtry type "band" where he kind of puts a band behind his name. So essentially, I think you're right on with his plans.  Ultimately, I think like you say, the control is a big part of it.  I think he wants to be able to operate on his own schedule to maintain his health and family obligations. It'll be interesting to see what sound the new material takes on.  It would seem logical to think it would be rock/melodic rock of some sort since that's really the type of music he's built his following with but he certainly has shown he can dabble anywhere from AOR to metal.
    • Glad I got to see them with Erik in front. All the best to him, definitely looking forward to his future outings when he is fully recovered. Would be cool to see him form his own band, where he could take control, and play around in different genres, from full on metal, to soothing AOR, the guy is so versatile.
    • Remedy - Crying Heart. One I've just seen thanks to the Iridium channel.  From the upcoming album. It's a Killer.     
    • Let's not forget Benny Hill. What a Magnificent show that was.    
    • Yeah... I dunno about that. It would be too cringe. Who knows? If I'm high enough, I might submit a video. 
    • Yep great track and if you fancy being in the video for "The Feeling" nows your chance.  
    • I'm proud to say that I had this single when I was a mere 8 years old. KISS were big down here then. Norman Gunston is Iconic for Aussies of my vintage.  The face ln the bottom left says it all. Hilarious.     
    • All in all, this is a great story. Erik played a brilliant, well received, albeit short cameo with one of our favourite bands.  It was a win, win, win. A win for us, a win for Skid Row (the album certainly put them back on the map) and a win for Erik, adding this to his already impressive resume. The fact that it was so amicable with both parties is also great to see.
    • I really like this album - not every song on it but there are some surprisingly catchy melodies all over. Personally I think the singer adds great energy to the mix. It reminds me of the earlier Bai Bang ("closer to you")
