  1. Are you trolling here, mate ? Ultimate sin is my favorite Ozzy + Guitarist + you name it! Secret loser easily in my list of the songs I listen to naked and drink champagne without the flute glass. I can't listen almost to anything else from ozzy. I think consensus on Ultimate Sin is that it ain't that great as an album. Some songs are good (like Shot In The Dark for example, although it sounded MUCH better live!! Check out the version from the Moscow Peace Festival) but as an album it just doesn't hold up to Ozzy's other classic work I think the biggest problem with 'The Ultimate Sin' (for most people) is that it comes after 'Bark At The Moon', which is an absolute classic ... on its own merits, as far as I'm concerned, 'Sin' is a cracking album - not a duff song on there. If Shazza could stop being a cow for five minutes, and give Phil Soussan the credit he deserves, the bloody thing might finally get re-issued on CD!

Secret loser easily in my list of the songs I listen to naked and drink champagne without the flute glass. I can't listen almost to anything else from ozzy. I LOVE 'The Ultimate Sin' ... just sayin' that most people think it's an 'average' album ...
  3. 'Insisted' is a bit strong They truly were shite, though ...
  4. As much as I love Maiden, this album is a real low point for me ... I only like about half the songs on it
  5. Iron Maiden: 'Fear Of The Dark' Status Quo: 'Back To Back' and 'Never Too Late' (to be honest, most of their output between, say, 1978 and 1984, is generally considered 'average' by the Quo Army) Ozzy Osbourne: 'The Ultimate Sin' (I remember some reviews panning this when it first came out) Twisted Sister: 'Love Is For Suckers'
  6. The UK one even has the original LA Guns logo. The US one actually says LA Guns Featuring.... the UK one quite similar but different, he changed the skull to a kid, probably afraid getting sued I think the face is meant to be him ... it's got a goatee
  7. Amorphis: Magic & Mayhem - Tales From The Early Years
  8. Hm ... 'dog shit'? When the second half has 'The Trooper' and 'Still Life'? Okay, after THAT it all goes a bit tits up ... To me the second half is the last 4 songs. If you'd said the last THREE songs, then we'd agree ... we were so close!
  9. If you look at it carefully, the UK poster suggests that Tracii is touring on his own (but trading on the LA Guns name) ... in the US, it looks like you're getting three piles of shite and Enuff Z'Nuff
  10. Hm ... 'dog shit'? When the second half has 'The Trooper' and 'Still Life'? Okay, after THAT it all goes a bit tits up ...
  11. Hardcore Superstar, around the time of their first album ... utter, dribbling shite ... they were so bad, it put me off them for life ...
  12. Statham is in 'Spy' ... his role is very tongue-in-cheek, and he does a good job of sending up the beat-'em-all-up/take-on-the-world-single-handed characters that he's known for ... at least, I HOPE his role is intended to be tongue-in-cheek I still wouldn't cross the road to see one of HIS films, though
  13. Re Blaze: oh dear. Re Bruce: no, sorry, I can't stand his voice these days. Glad you still like it, but it really grates on me. He sounded so much better in the good old day of 'Somewhere In Time' and 'Seventh Son'. True, he doesn't have the range these days (I'm not sure I'd enjoy hearing him belt out 'Where Eagles Dare', for instance), but I still like his voice ... it's a lot rougher now, and certainly a lot better than many vocalists out there ...
  14. "Medieval Folk Metal"? I'm not sure where the 'medieval' comes from ... and, while there ARE 'folky' elements, it's certainly not 'hey, nonny-nonny' shite ... their first album was a belter
  15. Don't panic - James just says these things to wind me up ... the git!
  16. Yeah, Jurassic World was decent. No real complaints, but it's also not something I'll ever watch again. I'm curious to know what the Minions movie is like. Let us know, Gibs. I was worried that the Minions film might just be a step too far, but it was actually very good ... as with the 'Despicable Me' films, there's plenty of stuff going on in the background, and Sandra Bullock is great as the villain of the piece ... the kids LOVED it (we had five kids with us - the eldest is 17, the youngest is 11) ... go see it
  17. Off to see the Minion movie tonight with my better half and (between us) five kids ... my youngest daughter wants to see 'Jurassic World'
  18. I thought this was a terrible film ... I love the first three 'Alien' films (I think I like the third one primarily because most of the actors are English, and I've seen them in some very un-Alien like programmes, which always makes me chuckle), but 'Resurrection' will never sully my DVD player again ...
  19. I thought that "A Matter Of Life And Death" had plenty of really good songs, but those vocals made listening to the whole thing in one sitting unbearable. Shut up, you tart! It's true. His voice is terrible these days. They should bring back Blaze. How very dare you, sir! And after I found that nice picture for you on FB!
  20. I thought that "A Matter Of Life And Death" had plenty of really good songs, but those vocals made listening to the whole thing in one sitting unbearable. Shut up, you tart!
  21. Matchbox 20 - 'Rest Stop' ... probably not everyone's cup of poison, but I love this song ... the same with The Cranberries' 'Daffodil Lament' ...
  22. I'm with you ... never saw the appeal ...
  23. Paddington (with the kids, honest) ... certainly not as awful as I was expecting, with the added bonus of Nicole Kidman playing the baddie
