New Releases now available from Retrospect Records

[Retrospect Records]

RECKLESS "No Frills" - finally available after 20 years as an official silver-pressed disc you don't want to miss out on this classy Melodic Hard Rock gem originally recorded in 1987.

 

HERMAN ZE GERMAN & FRIENDS - Originally released in 1985 , Scorpions drummer Herman Rarebell recorded this star-studded solo bonanza while the Scorps were on hiatus. This Hard Rockin' treasure features Don Dokken , Jack Russell , Juan Croucier , Steve Marriott and more!! Silver-Edition.

 

MASS "New Birth" - One of the most coveted Melodic Hard Rock / Metal releases of the mid-80s finally gets the official silver cd treatment and includes a nice 8-page booklet featuring lyrics , pics and liner notes by vocalist Louie St August. Best of all is that this cd is boosted by a never-before released bonus track taken from the "New Birth" sessions and never made it to the album. Essential for 80s Melodic Metal fans.

 

LAZY SUSAN "Bad Habit" - Sounding similar to Retrospect cohorts 'Buster Cherry' , this Hard Rockin quartet recorded this 7-song mini-album at the height of the no-talent flannel-soaked scene. The year was 1994 but it might as well have been 1989 for these Melodic Hard Rockers from Nashville. Guitarist Steve Purcell would go on to work with Ron Keel. Check out the sound samples - a nice addition to any 80s Hard Rock fan. This is a first time release on any format for Lazy Susan.

 

POYNT BLANKK "Any Questions?" - Re-release of this early 90s thrash indie and another notch on the belt of Retrospect subsidiary Retrothrash Records. Poynt Blankk hailed from Hawaii and could mosh with the best of em. Highly recommended to fans of Metallica , Megadeth , Suicidal Tendencies , Death Angel etc...

 

NANTUCKET "V" - Here it is , Nantucket's most AOR-sounding album finally issued on cd for the first time. Originally released in 1985 this disc is awashed in big harmony vocals , lotsa keyboards and some fiery musicianship.

[Retrospect Records]

[eaglesfan3000]

Where do you find these bands I've never heard of any of these guys...show's you how much I know.

 

Was there mention of re-releasing Cadillac Bratz?

[Retrospect Records]

I have been in the music business for 20+ years - you get to know a lot of people :+)

 

Not sure about CB , working on it.

[TheRipper]

O fuck yes about the RECKLESS - NO FRILLS!!!!!!

[MButt]

if I missed it, I apologize...but did sam decide on a silver pressing for Lorraine or not? I see it is done and on ebay...just curious...

[Retrospect Records]

I did not do it silver - I figured I'd see how the first 100 does. BUT the artwork and cd art is freaking KILLER - I tried something new and man they look good. I'll let someone else post about the quality.

[hardrock80srule]

Thanks Sam The Mass Cd showed up today. Fantastic Job! Excellent Artwork/Booklet Cd. Very Quality Release

[David]

Sam,

 

In regards to the new Lorraine CD, Please comfirm if this the case??

 

The unofficial bootleg "Boys Nite Out" is silver pressed and the official Retrospect CD "Wanted" is a CDR??

 

Is this correct?

 

P.S. I'll stick my head out and say that new artwork on the new Lorraine CD is killer!! I know the artist that did it and all his CD artwork is excellent.

 

Kind regards
