What are we all listening to at the moment.

Van Halen F.U.C.K. Got some nice songs there. And again I thought that Eddie's tone was rather clear and not overly distorted. Also a bit more dynamic than on OU812.

That's the only Hagar album i like.  it's a great record, and the guitar sounds on it are fantastic.

I just got Beasto Blanco's album, Live fast, Die Loud.  It's really good.  Not exactly original, sort of like a mixture of Motorhead and Rob Zombie, but a lot of fun and full of energy
(Beasto Blanco is the "solo" band of Alice Cooper's bassist, Chuck Garric)

If you are not familiar with them the genre is called powerviolence, a form of hardcore

Y&T - Earthquake: The A&M Years

Seven albums, including (IMO) all their best stuff, in a four CD box set - good value even though I had four of them on CD already.  :)

Spiritual Beggars - Spiritual Beggars

New reissue of their first album, with a second CD of rarities.

[Telerocker]

Rush - Exit Stage Left. Going back to good memories, when I saw them live in Rotterdam.

I HATE it when they do that. I've only just managed to track down the first album for sensible money and they go and re-issue it 2 months later. grrrrrrrr!

I didn't realise the first album was hard to get hold of (except the very first version with the "Indian" artwork), but it's not the first time the early Spiritual Beggars albums have been re-released with bonus tracks, so point taken!

I did the same with the early Trouble albums a few years back, bought them at great expense and within months they were re-released.

Hawkwind Spacehawks. Well, I think I'm gonna hit the post button and change this bloody racket. What the hell is it?! Arghrhrhhaa

Yeah it'd been expensive for some time and I thought I'd bagged a bargain. ah well.

I'm still trying to get Headless Cross for sensible money.

[Dave Sloven]

I got Headless Cross for an okay price on CD but when it arrived I found it had a card cover.  Not sure what that means

What, like a digipak, or a mini LP sleeve?  Or a card sleeve round a jewel case?

I bought it when it originally came out and mine is just a normal jewel case.  It has black & white cover art, I think some of the later reissues were coloured?
