Rock Candy - Sucker for a Pretty Face`

So this is certainly interesting that even the band members are uncertain, to be officially released disc format ever!

It is also interesting that suddenly came up many times as well, and all of them from the UK!

I think 50-100 pieces is re-printed, that is not officially or legally just do not know.

Anyway, what I saw in the pictures, it indicates that a very high quality of work, as has been obtained, if at all possible that actually was produced in 1990.

Unfortunately,the Russian counterfeits kill the original prices of the CD!!!

Everyone beware from Russian bootlegs cd's!

Like Wes said, can't say for sure but he is correct that the Winter's Reign - 'The Beginning' was just released through Azintex on "Loop Records." I don't know if you've seen these mofo's, Nick, but it'd be hard to tell the difference between legit and boot. Only difference I could really tell is how new the condition on the disc is, I guess. And where you got it from. ;)

 

Anyway, like a few others said - if Rock Candy is coming up soon on Azintex I will place my order that same day. Amazing disc, and boot or not, I would sell genitals to have this silver pressed.

take it easy, guys

i'm from Russia and i can guarantee that Rock Candy cd isn't russian bootleg. i know how to define russian boots and I regularly keep up with all new boots.

and this cd wouldn't appear in Azintex store because i saw a Rock Candy sold for big money. I don't think that russian bootleggers will ready to pay 200 or 300 pounds for it

 

I'm not sure what you mean, the inner ring looks quite similar to the late 80's and early 90's NOISE releases.

And for those of you out there that really feel this is a bootleg, but are still interested in buying the CD, I would recommend waiting to make a purchase for a few months. And if you think that this is a legit pressing you might want to track one down REALLY FAST!!!! The reason is: The one on ebay that sold for $396.10 is on its way to the Russian Federation. Just sayin'

Sure, you won't see cheaper version of rock candy from these copies at azintex store coz i bought it for my friend and i'm not bootlegged cds.

sometimes i do it for him.

Rock Candy was never officially released on CD.......there, in fact, were conversations among elite collectors 15 years ago regarding this one, and the band story holds true. And, believe me....PLENTY of collectors were looking for it (MetalEver). It just didn't exist. And, before Suncity approached them, other people did as well...and the guys in the band couldn't agree on if the sky was blue or black, let alone agree to release their disc. Now....to say that it doesn't exist now in 'some' form is asking for trouble....lol, but I highly doubt it is legit.

 

Delbert would be a good person to chime in on this, as well....as he made a fine transfer of it back in the day!

And, Metal4Ever, I'm really curious, as are others, as to what CD you found that didn't exist? Always love hearing stories like that!

Whoever the fucker is who posted this "Link Records CD is silver pressed original but here is crappy cd-r is now on ebay from seller named showtime9966. from so called TIME WARP RECORDS, which never existed. It was created with imagination of RETROSPECT RECORDS Sam and helps him to sell loads of cd-rs to all of you devoted followers ))) " on the product page here at HH can kiss my ass!!

 

Yep , I sell Time Warp stuff but I do not make it - I haven't got time for that. And showtime9966 is NOT me on eBay. You're an asshole dude!

Rock Candy is a boot. Period. I have to admit the picture from the ebay auction looks good. The fact that I have the art for that cover, I know its a boot. Also, the band could never agree on the rights and especially money. The guitarist and other band members wre ready, but the singer thought it should sell millions and want the world to release it. The guitarist is a very cool guy, its a shame. The demos for the 2nd cd are even better.

Somehow I missed Dave's post a bit ago in this thread. Pretty much spot on. The singer wanted the world for his music, and had dillusions about its worth and expectations.

 

Sad because I really dig this band and they always put on a great entertaining show back in the day. Quality band and very energetic.

Are you sure? I think I've heard a handful of them and I'd have to respectfully disagree. I think there was only one song out of the 5 or 6, imo, that came anywhere near what was on that brilliant debut.

Let me know when he starts selling them for about $10 each. Then I might be interested. :spvader:

 

This. Unless anyone can do me a CDR for about $10? :)

    • Seems these guys are no more   https://sleazeroxx.com/r-i-p-cobrakill-lead-guitarist-randy-white-announces-band-no-longer-exists/
    • I grew up listening to Cuntry, and have kinda wanted to get back into it. But not the typical New Cuntry shit. So I'll give this a try. 
    • I always forget about this band, and then I listen to them and am like, "Oh, yeah, they're good!" And then forget about them for another year. 
    • I was a pretty big fan. Nature Of The Beast is a killer song. Saw them with Dave Gleeson from the Screaming Jets singing and he did an amazing job, but pretty sure they have a new singer now  I recently went through the two most recent albums before this one and there were a couple of ok tracks, but mostly mid. Fun fact: I saw the Angels a couple of years before Doc died at the Middle hotel in Ferntree Gully and they seemed to hate each other. Pretty sure Doc said nothing to the crowd all night. Fun fact 2: when they were building the transit bar in Melbourne, a mate and I found a service elevator that went to the roof, which was under construction. After peeing off the roof, which is always fun, we realised that we could clearly hear the music 5 or 6 floors below from a DJ I think. He was playing Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again. We started yelling down the No Way Get Fucked, Fuck Off bit thinking we were hilarious. Then soon we noticed people looking up, and for some reason they seemed to be clearly hearing us. Another mate then called us to tell us security were on the way up the stairs so we took the service elevator down and managed to laugh it off. Stoopid drunk story I guess, but fun days.
    • Cheeky, getting your artwork in there. I wonder how you did that.  I like the vocal track on #1 and that'd be my pick. I personally don't dig the female versions of songs, because I'm not a female (yet?) and as these are songs written by ourselves I personally feel the best interpretation is an AI dude voice taking the place of your dude voice. 
    • Yeah, that's great but this is obviously an accomplished musician probably completely in control of this output... not done with Suno, I'd bet. There's definitely dudes out there who are perfectly capable of doing their own music, like this dude, but for whatever reason might not be able to put a project together, again, for whatever reason... but this definitely feels a lot more like AI feeling in the missing gaps for someone otherwise in complete control of what he wants.  Either way, it is very cool indeed.  As Darkstone says, I'm not sure paying is the way to get the best results. I'm also not saying it isn't, especially with other platforms that are not Suno. I think already knowing what you're doing, musically, is the best way to get best results, personally. Suno, for example, is just perfect for someone who might enjoy writing lyrics but is not in any way shape or form an accomplished (or even adequate, lol) musician.  But yeah, it's pretty cool for some fun. I'm not sure if you checked out my links above. Keeping them pretty quiet due to lyrical content, lol, but you might dig some of the stuff in my links. 'As the moment passes by' and 'I'll wait for you' are two of my personal faves. Along with 'Faith to fall.'
    • Yeah, musically it's what you want, but vocally... Maybe Alex should take some vocal lessons from Ken Tamplin. ;}

    • Yep, although I was never a massive fan.
