Any details? I saw they reissued mega rarities like Robert Tepper´s "No Easy Way Out" and Fahrenheit´s "Talking ´Bout Love"?

These are definitely Bootlegs-you surely remember all this Swedish guy who sold the Stage Dolls-Commandos

on EBAY and told that he found a rest stock.In similar way suddenly lots of copies from Kuni-Masque were offered to Swedish dealers-and these Dealers now also offer the Robert Tepper.Okay,Sweden is part of European community and maybe it is more possible to accuse here people who produce Bootlegs-but this is

the business of the Major Labels and their interest seems only in checking the charts than prosecuting that

illegal re-issues.More horrible is the US Situation where you can found Labels FULL with such stuff and nobody

prevents this-is there no authority at all????

Does anyone have any actual confirmation (i.e. proof) that these are bootlegs. I've seen this one and some other stuff on Rock-It Records that I'm interested in:

 

Brian McDonald Group - Desperate Business

Illusion - S/T

Illusion - I Like It Loud

Shogun - 31 Days

 

There are a few others (that I can't recall right now). I don't mind having a few boots, but I don't want to drop a buttload of cash for one. Any help would be most appreciated.

All the Rock-It titles are boots. The Brian Macdonald was re-issued on the excellent Sony Rewind label and is the official release, the other is a boot. Would be very careful with the Robert Tepper, although it is being advertised as being on the Scotti Bros. label which is the correct one, so without seeing it couldn't confirm. The 2 Illusion dics to my knowledge have never been released on CD, so you decide their authenticity.

I am certain one of the Illusion CDs recieved an official CD pressing.

If not, perhaps the people in reissues should look into releasing both Illusion albums on CD :)

I can't tell from the lone picture, but the disclaimer in the auction wording combined with the reluctance to send you a picture of the disc itself just screams out CD-R.

Ok i had to bite on this one......I bought a copy of the Robert Tepper, and yes it is definately a bootleg......the sound quality is not the greatest but not the worst, has some pops and hisses if you listen closely.....Also the artwork is not centered on the booklet, the printing on the cd itself is out of line as bad if not as worse as the Stage Dolls fiasco....It is silverpressed, which did shock me, but i only paid $10 for it.......Hell even the Rock It Records insignia is not straight.....hahaha......If you want it for just listening purposes it is cool, but if you are collecting steer clear....

 

Later

THANKS LONNIE FOR THE INFO....

I HAVE TO SAY THAT THE SELLER IS NOT VERY HONEST BECAUSE HE DON'T ANSWER TO MAILS OR MESSAGES AND NOT SHOWS THE PHOTO OF THE CD.

I'M SURPRISED ON THE GOOD FEEDBACK HE RECEIVED

    • So finally got around to listening to the album (still waiting for CD to arrive but at least a digital version came with the order). This is defo the best album he has released since leaving Skid Row, and is better than anything released by his former band (even the Erik fronted album). I liked his solo stuff, but he was always trying too hard to be modern and heavy, so there were very few actual stand out tracks. On here though it really is more of a throwback. While not quite classic Skid Row, it is probably as close as we will ever get, kinda sitting somewhere sonically between the first two albums. The only downside for me is the fact there is only one ballad and it doesn't even come close to the two that featured on Angel Down. Seb took a long break between this and his previous album, and I think in that time he has taken time to reevaluate what he wants to do musically. As stated earlier, even the album cover is a throwback with it being a painting his father started decades ago. Hopefully any future releases will stick to this style, and not return to the style used on his last few albums.
    • Not sure, but sounds like christian lyrics to me. And could'nt find it on HH yet. 25 years ago I would have loved this, today I'm atheist and do not listen anymore to such... explicit lyrics.  
    • Spider of Destiny-Frank Zappa
    • I got it for free when I bought the Dirty Americans album. It's a cool little sampler.
    • Ha, I remember them. Good stuff.
    • Better than I expected, honestly, as GUN was never my thing.
    • Agree. Have been a fan of Halestorm and Lzzy....she's fantastic. That said though, this Skid Row thing just feels "off" to me.  She sounds fine but I think it's simply that hearing a female voice do the songs just doesn't seem right after listening to the originals for so long.   I much prefer hearing Lzzy in Halestorm.  I'd rather see her concentrate on that and also concentrate on doing new music that's more in line with their first 2 albums!
    • From memory it was recorded after the original pledge release of Beautiful things and was added as a bonus song when it became available to the general public.
