Spock's Beard - V

Having just received my copy of the new Neal Morse dvd, in the last week, I've been listening to a lot of Neal/Spock's stuff.

A return to form for Mel after the Kasey Chambers 'incident' last week

.
How is the DVD mate?

My AOTW is the first G3 CD...not for the music (which is great), but because I got it signed by Steve Vai yesterday. All gloats/announcements over :oops:

by **Serendipity** » Thu Jul 22, 2004 7:43 pm

This week: Wishbone Ash - Argus; songs like Sometime World I can't get enough of.

It's pretty good. It seems to take a couple of songs for the band to find the groove, but once they do they sound great. Neal's singing and of couse Portnoy's playing are in fine form. The highlight, for me, was the last encore 'Stranger In Your Soul'...sounded great. The third encore song clocks in at almost 30 minutes...gotta love prog.

AOW was almost the new Scorpions disc.....but in the last 48 hours Mattias Eklundh blew them out of the water with Freak Guitar-The Road Less Travelled. Some god damn amazing shit i tell ya. Guitar being played with chopsticks, the most fucked up version of Smoke on the Water (genius), the theme to Fletch and so much more.

Not really one particular AOTW for me. I have been playing a lot of Black Sabbath, Rainbow and Dio, to warm up for the Dio concert, can't wait for that after having seen the setlist of his gig in Finland...

Led Zep II. A classic! Whole Lotta Love, What Is And What Should Not Be, Lemon Song (Serendipity's fav :mrgreen:

), Heartbreaker, Ramble On, Moby Dick... Is there anything wrong with it!

Nice lyrics.... :lol:

AOTW is Hybrid Ice "No Rules." I'm still baffled how a great keyboard-driven AOR album hasn't seen the light of day in reissue land. The vocal harmonies are to die for!

Marvelous 3 - ReadySexGo! (Thanks Doggy!)

Finally can get rid of my shitty copy. Not to everyones tastes, but I like it.

by **doggy** » Thu Jul 29, 2004 8:59 am

Union of the Souls by Three Colours Red ( thanks Mr Rock)

by **Penny** » Mon Aug 02, 2004 12:56 am

Been listening to Pyramaze - Melancholy Beast. It's pretty good. Lance King from Balance of Power did the vocals, but it's very different musically to them. I like it.

Album of the week (mini album) for me has been the rare Shelter - indie CD.

by **maidenman77** » Mon Aug 02, 2004 6:03 pm

AOTW for me is Slide it In - Whitesnake

Good Choice

It's a great album!

by **Penny** » Mon Aug 02, 2004 11:01 pm

Yep, have to agree there, it is a great album.

Yeah, great album!

I'm getting a deja vu feeling now, am I the only one? :lol:

by **Kenny** » Mon Aug 02, 2004 11:47 pm

Yeah, it's a great album......shit, there it is again! :lol:

My AOTW is Yes - 'Going for the one'. I wish I could have heard this while I was still using drugs..... :lol:

As we are all early with our albums of the week: mine is Jefferson Starship - Freedom At Point Zero. I did some adjustments to the recordplayer and now I am able to enjoy the guitarsolo on Awakening in all its glory.

This song would also sound better when under the influence; it's a pity though the song lasts only seven minutes instead of twenty...

by **Bobbi Flekman** » Tue Aug 03, 2004 2:03 am

I see the theme for the week is hallucinogens... In that case... I just bought the 5.1 Dolby Digital version of Dark Side Of The Moon. I bet that would be great, now I'm off to find my pills!!!

We are having eggs for dinner, I can add some mushrooms if you like...

by **Thomasha** » Tue Aug 03, 2004 3:02 am

(Magic) mushrooms!! Now we´re talking! :lol:

I like the Slide It In album too, isn´t there a U.S. remix of that LP where John Sykes plays the guitars?

Yep. It's available in two ways. I have the vynil version with Galley/Moody and the CD with Sykes.

Shark Frenzy - Richie Sambora/Bruce Foster

Still undecided about this one, perhaps I was expecting some Bon Jovi.

by **Taliwakker** » Tue Aug 03, 2004 9:50 am

That album is a pile of shit

my AOW is Avantasia Pt 1 and 2...really two albums but i'm calling them one....they also are a pile of shit for the most part but there are some cool Helloween moments on there that i can dig.

by **Jonny B** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 1:24 am

This week's AOTW for me is Styx "Paradise Theater." The weird thing is that I never liked this group at any given point when I was younger. And then after a test spin to make sure a christmas gift worked properly, it was like an 180 degree turnaround. I don't know why I've changed my mind now, but Styx isn't half bad at all.

by **doggy** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 9:25 am

The ATOW is "Good Times" by The Stage Dolls. This is double disc best of, by the Dolls. Featuring all their big hits.

by **melodic_metal_fl** » Fri Aug 06, 2004 10:09 am

Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway

by **Taliwakker** » Tue Aug 10, 2004 9:49 am

Into Eternity-Buried in Oblivion

This album has been constantly in my car stereo and in my head this week. A strange combination of Death and Melodic metal. Not like bands like Soilwork or Killswitch Engage which are Death verses and Melodic chorus but these guys are all over the place. Nearly everyone in the band sings clean or death or both (some wicked harmonies)...and the musicianship is top notch.

Definately in my top 5 cds released this year.
