Cool post.

Rubbish bootleg label as well as its inbred siblings EVIL EYE, SHOCK WAVE RECORDS, and STRIKEFORCE. I have friends who have been screwed by those guys.
(.......and yet, they still appear to be sold...... )

Yeah, Ricky is putting on his best Phil I guess but still sounds cool to me.

Bobby still trying to sing. Those lyrics are quite cheesy but probably would sound better with a better singer.
On the bright side, Richie Sambora is free and can sing this Bon Jovi song if they fire the singer.

Just an old Alice Cooper CD.

Wouldn't worry about replicated CDs. They will last as long as you take care of them. CD-R is what you worry about. The whole Replicated vs Duplicated longevity discussion is just excuses to be cheap yet still sell at prices higher than a properly pressed CD.

..... I don't know anyone who has a silver cd that doesn't play.
Me either. If it doesn't, it either was badly manufactured and didn't play from Day 1 or they treated the CD like shit and are complaining that their scratched CD doesn't play.

I always thought you couldn't possibly be more gay. Thanks for proving me wrong.

My Best of Compilation for RATT would be a blank CD-R.
-
Replicated CDs last longer. Data is 'pressed' into the polycarbonate plastic. Duplicated CD-R data is just burned into the dye layer of a 'pre-made' blank CD-R.
You are more likely to out-live a CD-R than a replicated CD.

Kingofthehill: Sound guy must have been asleep. Couldn't hear Frankie. It seemed like a 5 song instrumental gig.
Near Life Experience: Blaze shouldn't sing lead.
L.A. Guns: The 'American Hardcore' Lineup.
Ratt: Because it was RATT.

Some CD Players still do not guarantee that all CD-Rs will play on them. I have a new Samsung laptop that will not play certain brands of Silver-Bottom CD-Rs in its CD player.

If someone is concerned that a release is a CD-R before buying from ANY company these days, do not ask the company if it is 'Silver'. Ask the company if the release was 'Replicated' (Glass Master required) or 'Duplicated' (Burned on CD-R). If the company will not tell you one of those words, then they more than likely do not know the difference (which is odd for a label not to know that) or they are being sly with their info. When 'Silver-Bottom CD-R' got popular, it became easy for any company/band or bootlegger to claim their release was in fact 'Silver'. It became a play on words.

OH BOY!!!!... OH BOY!!!!!

Cool band .... but to remaster and then duplicate on CD-R seems counterproductive.
-
...their singer sucked. Thankfully they got rid of him and replaced him with this new guy, as he sounds 1000 times better....
I agree with you on that. The first singer, Bobby was terrible.

It's weird if digipak is more expensive why do they bother ? is it because just some distros won't sell ? and i don't understand, why distros want digipak format ? can you share some lights on this ?
Because Digipak is the 'IN' thing and 'supposedly' a 'Green' product. (They will save the Earth... You have to pretend the world is complying with all GREEN laws and no environmental law breakers exist.... ).
Some distros want Digipaks for the extended versions of an album. The album can be in a jewel case in its original format but if you want to add extra songs for the same release as a Japan Version/ European Version, then some distros want those versions to be in Digipak form.
Most Digipak's are priced higher to produce. It is the "It's a GREEN product so we can charge more money to produce them." mentality.... but people want to fit in the trend so choose them. Just as people always want to be on iTunes to fit the trend even if APPLE takes roughly 30% off the top of each purchase before everyone else gets their cut.

I like Jewel Cases better. At least you can replace the spindle piece if the teeth crack. With Digipaks, you are screwed.
Digipaks are usually more expensive in manufacture pricing.
Some label distros want Digipak format for CDs that contain extra songs or they will not sell them.
Song Intros: Game #2

I agree that #5 is Enuff Z'Nuff 'Fly High Michelle'. #2 is the original John Bonham intro for a Led Zeppelin song but forget which song that was.
