... A bit perhaps, but take a listen to her "Hide your Heart" album - it's pretty much AOR all the way... Produced by Desmond Child btw - Do I need to say more? B)

Just looked thru the new additions...

 

Since when has Bonnie Tyler been Heavy Harmonies material?

 

Strecthing the boundaries a bit aren't we?

 

You think maybe I could get Cliff Richard added now?

Timothy Is there a polite way to ask you from refraining from using that Fuckers name on this board. No, I didn't think there is, so I will not take this any further for the fear of getting into trouble!! :whistle:

I guess that means you've already tried to get him added without success then Jez?!

Actually, if you want to get technical about it, Cher's albums from the late 1980s and early 1990s are *THE* definition of melodic rock, so why not include her? Heart of Stone is an AOR classic, IMO.

 

There will always be artists who are on "the fringe" of what is acceptable, or they may have one or two albums out of an entire discography that are suitable (for example, the glam-era Pantera albums are included here).

 

To a certain extent, it's a judgment call, and frequently it comes down to "what is my gut reaction when someone mentions XXXXXX's name?"

 

Of course then there's the fact that many folks will disagree as to whether XXXXXX should be included. No matter what you do, someone will think it was the wrong choice.

Were these ever actually released (officially) on CD?

Yeah, I have to admit I don't envy Dan's position because every single person here is going to have a different opinion on what should be here and what shouldn't. Any band/artist without massive hair is a question mark, in my opinion.

 

I look at stuff like Bonnie Tyler, or Chicago... there's always a few new additions where I personally think "whatnow?" But on the other hand, I've been long singing the song that SR-71/Honor Among Thieves (with links to Childs Play) should be here and to be honest, with Ra, Cinder Road and most of all Antheneaum (sp?) on the list, there's a couple of dozen "modern" rock bands I'd throw in the mix... but for every me there's a heap that'd disagree with me. So yeah, it's a hard call and I can empathise with Dan's situation.

 

At the end of the day, once they're no longer 'New Additions' there's no need for them to be noticed if you don't wish to. :)

Except for POWER METAL. The band did press some of that one on CD on their own "Metal Magic" label. The rest have been bootlegged like hell on CD over the years though.

I don't always know what I'm talking about either, but I believe that is true.

 

Back on topic: When I was a teenager I thought Bonnie Tyler was kinda hot. :lol:

If memory serves, Bonnie was wearin' some stylin' high heeled cowboy boots in the video for that song... that's probably what sparked my fetish :lol:

    • No official release yet so don't know when exactly the album is supposed to come out but I'm assuming it's this year. I'm sure you're all brimming with excitement.
    • 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")
