I have an extra copy of 'Requiem ...' and listed it on eBay a few weeks ago but it didn't sell. Good band, though.

The best thing about this album is the artwork.

I've actually been talking to Roy about this (and Alan hit me up a few weeks back on Facebook) ... yep, it's gonna be pretty cool, indeed.
Did Alan or Roy let you hear any of it yet? I am waiting for the final mix session on Nov30 for any final tweaks before I hear it...
So far I've only heard "You Lie" (which is fantastic) but I should be hearing several more in the next week or so. Get rid of the drummer and the bass player and you might have a great album here! LOL Obviously kidding - this is how we all speak to each other with that bunch ....

This entire album is fantastic. What's funny (to me) is, way back when, tons of people were wanting them to cover "Shout at the Devil" and, if you listen closely, they kinda do steal that riff on one of the songs on the new album ...

i've only been in AZ for 2 and a half years, im from the chicago burbs originally.
hell, i didnt even realize the grand canyon was in this state (nor did i care) until we started visiting here in 2009.
seriouly, no person of ANY religous denomination is going to approach a guy that looks and dresses like me and start a conversation.
Mormons are okay,, but Toomuchmons is a cameltoe
Wow, there's someone in here that lives near me??? I used to live not far from the Mormom Temple (Univ. / Stapley) and those f-ing guys would come knock on the door at 9am on a Sunday. We have 5 dogs, two of which "bark like I'm REALLY fucking mean" and they'd get back on their bikes and haul ass. Now we're in Tempe (right at the Snotsdale border) and I don't think I've seen one since we've been here.

It's a record company promo most likely.
From that era? I disagree... unless the catalog number on the spine has a promotional designation that differs from the released version and there's either a promo stamp or designation on the disc and/or the tray card.
As you are intimately aware, back then the record labels did separate press runs for their promos and a label that size had them professionally done. This has all the earmarks of a Russian/Greek bootleg. I personally wouldn't touch it.
EDIT: Looking at the current and completed eBay listings, with several sellers having quantity of supposedly "brand new" copies of this, I'm guessing there's a boot floating around.
They were on PolyGram if I remember correctly. I have several PolyGram promos from the early 90's that were exactly like that. But, yes, all of the UPC's have a "Promotional Copy" stamp over top of them and the discs have the same thing.

Spam-a-dee-spam, wonderful spam.
By any chance, have you ever tried to sell anything on Craigslist? Cuz after I put an ad on there trying to sell my RV trailer earlier this Summer, I've been overrun with "dating site" spam. I'm thinkin' that these spam sites must be "scraping" e-mail addresses off of Craigslist.
My RV was sold three weeks ago, I took my ad off of Craigslist as soon as the guy left my driveway with it, and yet at least once per day I still get at least one of these messages in my inbox:
From: Liriano Lucken
RE: 2005 Starcraft Travel Trailer
Is your item still available? I don't generally do this but you sounded sizzling in your ad and I feel drawn into you. I live close by you and I'm up for anything. My only fear is that you might be a "bot" as Craigslist is full of them So if you're indeed real, can we chat on my profile page? It's the safest way and extremely discreet. I'll message you as soon as I see you sign in. Only YOU will be able to see my pictures and phone # on there so if you like what you see, get hold of me. I apologize to irritate you, but life is too short, so I had to give this a chance. If you are a real person, confirm. I think you'll be astonished. See you!
"Sizzling" huh? Wow, I must've written the sexiest "RV For Sale" ad in Craigslist history. Who knew?
The wording changes slightly from one message to another but the idea is basically the same in each one, they want me to click on a Web link to access their "profile page," which obviously I am not doing... and there are usually one or two naked lady pictures attached to each message, but I am not clicking on those either...
At first I was responding "Oh, please fuck off" to each of these but they just keep on comin'... so I guess my e-mail address must be in the "address book" of whatever automated "bot" sends these things out now. Oh, joy.
Ahhhhh, shit, that's YOU I was sending those messages to??? And, yeah, it did hurt my feelings a bit when you told me to fuck off. Damn!

It's certainly more subtle than, say, the Scorpions' 'Lovedrive' or 'Animal Magnetism'
Or Victory's debut.

I think overall Ratt has a stronger catalogue. Live though, Kix absolutely wipe their asses with Ratt. Zero comparison, 99.999999% of the reason being the travesty that is Stephen Pearcy.
And, with all of Ratt's songs that are "better" than Kix's, the song "Cold Blood" (from Kix, in case someone is out of the loop) is one of my favourite songs ever. The intensity and the hook in the B section through to the chrorus in that song almost makes your spine bleed. I cannot turn that song up loud enough.

This would make a great, "When you see it you'll shit bricks" poster thingie.

Haven't seen that cover before ... completely different to the UK version ...
That's because the Brits had already "figured it out" (Rob). I have the above as a CD and this one on vinyl.
There we go with it not embedding again ...

Oh, good Lord. Okay, so this video - how do you embed it???

Okay, how in the hell do you embed videos???
You mean like this?
Yep. I've done it before but I can't seem to remember.

I think we've had this debate on several threads now. If you're using Firefox, you just paste the link into the body of the post, like so (fingers crossed):
That's what I did ... weird

As an unabashed Bee Gees fan I hafta say that was impressive as hell.

Jan was a fantastic person. No ego, lots of fun to be around, drop dead gorgeous. I probably interviewed her 4 or 5 times for different magazines between the first two releases.
Whenever we had an interview scheduled, she would send out for chocolate chip cookies and we would eat the entire box and talk, part interview, part just living life stuff.
Haven't spoken to her since 1992 but it seems like yesterday ...
