Ultimate Sin.

 

I always felt something was missing with Bark At The Moon. It's a good album but I always feel like it's missing a certain spark because it's the album that followed Randy's death. The spark was certainly back on Ultimate Sin though. Shot In The Dark is the song that introduced metal to me, so I will always be partial to that one. Killer Of Giants rules all too.

I don't know. I voted for the Ultimate Sin as my album of 40 from 1986 in the THE YEAR © ℗®™ 1967-1990 25 Part poll series, so that's got to count for something hasn't it?

 

I notice Earl didn't vote in any of the THE YEAR © ℗®™ polls because he only votes in his own polls these days! :P And it's too late to vote now because we completed the series in Part 25 with all 24 Year winners pitted against each other in a poll of polls. Earl's just a rank amateur when it comes to doing polls. :smoke:

Bark at the Moon. I remember freezing my ear while walking to the store and back to get the album. I couldn't feel part of the ear for a few weeks. :scared: Bark is more heavy than Ultimate and that always works for me.

They're pretty close, but I have to go with Bark at the Moon for sentimental reasons. I saw him on that tour, backed by UFO. Great show.

I was lucky enough to see him on both those tours, 3 shows in all. :hail:

J!!

 

YOU NAILED IT!!! I FEEL THE SAME WAY!!! CAPS ON!!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!

 

It lacked a spark. Nothing wrong with the synth era but I wanted more guitars on that record!!!! it was odd that the UK version had "Spiders" as a different track!!!

HAHAHA! Oh Pat, you are a brother to me.

I've been spending a lot of time with my new woman.

I promise you I will explore the forum and go for your polls.

Lots going on mate.

Mostly good not negative, but I actually have to work more with my dad on lockdown with my mom.

I am being responsible. Not staying up till 3 am typing about how much I love ACCEPT or WHITE LION! LOL!!!

 

 

Love you dude!!!

You lucky basted.

 

I was talking to a very good friend of mine today.

He saw the Bark and Sin Tours here in the Bay Area.

He's only two years older than me.

Fuckking working at Safeway back in 1985 really f***ed me, but I made great money. Oh the irony. I had enough money to see DIO and ACCEPT front row, but I couldn't go because I worked every weekend of my life in reality.

 

3 pm to MIDNIGHT!

 

FUCKK PAT! FUKKK My FRIENDS!

 

I was truly "LIVING AFTER MIDNIGHT" in my youth.

 

Yeah, in a Safeway parking lot. Throwing the frisbee. Drinking lots of beer and cranking RUSH.

 

It's life!

 

I'm going to put on "Bark At The Moon" tomorrow and see. I don't think it's better than "The Ultimate Sin" but it is a masterpiece.

While The Ultimate Sin has some excellent moments (as noted above, Killer of Giants is a FANTASTIC song), I think that Bark at the Moon is a more consistent album.

 

All good 78!

 

I get it, but I need to crank "Bark" tomorrow night.

What the olive oil company Earl??

 

Oh Pat!

 

Don't make me sad!

 

I created the name of the company... "Bella Luna Foods Inc."

I designed the olive oil label too!

 

It was a very simple logo.

I put a black olive tree in front of an orange harvest moon.

It was a knock out Pat.

The oil came from Sardinia.

The bottle was sexy too. Glass bottle that looked like a ribbed dildo.

Sex sells Pat.

It was a goldmine hit.

But my fuckking brother wasn't into it. He was the salesman.

My buddy Jeff and I should have sold the oil.

 

Here is some rock and roll trivia for you.

 

So Jeff Harper is one of my best friends.

He worked for us during the olive oil years and in distribution.

 

So get this....

 

Jeff Harper was the lead singer in CITY KIDD.

 

Sacramento California.

 

Then CITY KIDD hired Frank Hannon.

Brian Wheat the bassist of course found him.

 

My buddy Jeff quit CITY KIDD to tour with some band in Japan. It failed.

So Frank and Brian and Troy hired Jeff Keith.

 

They formed TESLA DUDE!!!!!

 

I have many stories.

 

I was backstage with TESLA many times Pat.

I was part of the TESLA family for a bit.

Y&T used to open for TESLA.

I was really in the family Pat.

Those were the fuckking days.

Happily married.

My parents and Wendy's mom watching the girls so we could party and rock.

Pat,

 

I should write a book.

 

No one would read it.

 

I was happily married with little girls and partying like a rock star.

 

It can happen!!

 

"GOODBYE GIRL" by TOTO is playing on my stereo PAT! TOTO MODE!

"Must be in the way that she cries!"

 

I love that Lorraine thinks I should try and get back with Wendy, but there is no way in HELL.

 

The good times outweighed the shitty times.

So I will take it.

 

Come on Pat.

 

As BOSTON would say...

 

"DON'T LOOK BACK!"

 

 

Life is all about success and failure.

You are typing to just one dude in the billions of humans who has made it.

Failed.

Made it.

Failed.

MADE IT!!!

 

 

I am nothing to anyone else, but what a fuckking ride baby. I am still holding on to that rail bar on that Magic Mountain rollercoaster.

 

"I WANT IT ALL I WANT IT NOW!!"

 

I want Carly Pat!!!

 

 

Cheers!!!

 

Movie time!!!

Coincidentally there used to be a Safeway warehouse across the canal from the School I used to go to back in the mid to late 70's, St Joseph's. I used to see the big Safeway trucks going out when I was on the playground at lunch or whatever. Maybe one of your pals was driving Earl? I think Safeway went bust a few years ago in the UK and got taken over by a competitor, I think it was Morrisons that bought them out?

Wow Pat!

 

That's a great memory!

 

I was always in the store mate. Never with the truck driving union.

 

I spent 16 years at Safeway Pat.

They were the Heyday. Seriously. 1985-2001. I actually got a letter today from the UNION. I will get a pension someday Pat! It won't be a lot but it will cover my beer expense for life. LOL!!!!

 

Safeway is still huge here but it is all a clusterfuck. Not sure what they did in the UK but Albertson's bought out Safeway over here like 4 years ago.

My best friend Nick was in the produce management section. Non Union. They fired him.

They cut benefits and lowered wages. Evil company now.

It's kind of ironic Pat. My best friend Nick works for Earl's Organic Produce in San Francisco.

 

Oh and this is probably the first time on the forum that I mentioned my best friend Nick.

We partied so much in the 80's, 90's.

 

But just for you Pat.

 

My best friend's favorite band is JUDAS FUCKKING PRIEST!

 

I saw "Painkiller" with him!

Earl I love TOTO but I never liked Tesla. My pal from the 80's Mark "RAZZ" Riley was well into them. He was a big AC/DC nut so any band that sounded anything like AC/DC he liked, such as Krokus, Rose Tattoo, Cinderella and a bunch of obscure AC/DC clone bands. He did like other bands as well though such as Priest and KISS but later on he was the biggest fan among us of Tesla.

Earl what do you think of the Rolling Stones? I'm starting to get into them after all this time. Up to now I haven't ever bought a Stones album but now I have 60 album targets ready!

 

 

I saw your poll about the Rolling Stones Pat.

 

I do love The Rolling Stones.

I saw them three times in my life.

They are Legends.

It's very rare for me to get into a Stones Phase. Like The Beatles.

But it does happen Pat.

 

If my memory serves me correctly some are telling you to get HOT ROCKS and that second HOT ROCKS 2 HITS.

 

Rolling Stones Greatest Hits and Beatles Hits Albums SUCK ASS!!!!

 

 

JMO

 

Rolling Stones and Beatles are "FULL ALBUM BANDS!" JMO

 

I have everything by the Stones Pat. Beatles too.

 

It just takes time Pat.

 

As I type to you tonight on my 5th Blue Moon beer, fuckk it.

 

Boring bands.

 

But if you get in that mode.....

 

It's great.

 

Like,,,,

 

I just watched the Rolling Stones Rock And Roll Circus on blu-ray.

 

Great shit.

 

The Who killed it.

 

I think Lennon is in there too with Clapton and that screaming piece of shit banshee Yoko OH NO????

 

Whatever.

 

You have to be in a certain mood.

 

Just like me THE WHO PAT!

 

Give me all the Pete Townshend solo albums!!!!

 

Ahhh, The Stones......

 

 

Again, and I mean no disrespect to any Rush Forum Members.

 

But man, Greatest Hits Albums belong in the fuckingg toilet of no return. FLUSH THAT SHIT!

 

I think PUPPETKING had a saying in his avatar... "Greatest hits are for soccer moms." He fuckking nailed it Pat. Take it from me I married a soccer mom, and took her all over North America for RUSH. 20 fuckking years Pat.

Taking my ex wife to RUSH.

Never complained.

Never said no.

Why Why ZEE????

 

Because of the hotels, restaurants, bars, shopping, hot sex.

 

Maybe I should write a book.

 

My entire life since 2006 is on here.

 

 

I remember little Zoe was in the backseat of my SUV as I pulled off the freeway and I was suddenly behind Neil Peart's tour bus!

What are the fuckking odds Pat?

Zoe was freaking out.

I was following the bus up to the Concord Pavilion.

 

I called Nobody's Hero! Remember her Pat? Cindy from Colorado. We met at Red Rocks for RUSH twice.

 

Perhaps I could write a fuckking book.

 

If I put RUSH in the title may 21.12 people will read it. lol!!!!

 

 

Fukkk it Pat.

 

I'm watching a movie and going to bed.

 

I love my new girl.

 

I hope I can meet her this summer.

I know you love TOTO!!! We have that major connection.

 

Look, I get it about TESLA.

 

Jeff Keith's voice is shite.

 

But I confess, I love the first four albums. Up to "BUST A NUT." THEN THEY ARE SHIT!

Fuckking working at Safeway back in 1985 really f***ed me, but I made great money. Oh the irony. I had enough money to see DIO and ACCEPT front row, but I couldn't go because I worked every weekend of my life in reality.

 

3 pm to MIDNIGHT!

 

FUCKK PAT! FUKKK My FRIENDS!

 

I was truly "LIVING AFTER MIDNIGHT" in my youth.

 

Yeah, in a Safeway parking lot. Throwing the frisbee. Drinking lots of beer and cranking RUSH.

 

It's life!

 

I'm going to put on "Bark At The Moon" tomorrow and see. I don't think it's better than "The Ultimate Sin" but it is a masterpiece.

Coincidentally there used to be a Safeway warehouse across the canal from the School I used to go to back in the mid to late 70's, St Joseph's. I used to see the big Safeway trucks going out when I was on the playground at lunch or whatever. Maybe one of your pals was driving Earl? I think Safeway went bust a few years ago in the UK and got taken over by a competitor, I think it was Morrisons that bought them out?

 

Wow Pat!

 

That's a great memory!

 

I was always in the store mate. Never with the truck driving union.

 

I spent 16 years at Safeway Pat.

They were the Heyday. Seriously. 1985-2001. I actually got a letter today from the UNION. I will get a pension someday Pat! It won't be a lot but it will cover my beer expense for life. LOL!!!!

 

Safeway is still huge here but it is all a clusterfuck. Not sure what they did in the UK but Albertson's bought out Safeway over here like 4 years ago.

My best friend Nick was in the produce management section. Non Union. They fired him.

They cut benefits and lowered wages. Evil company now.

It's kind of ironic Pat. My best friend Nick works for Earl's Organic Produce in San Francisco.

 

Oh and this is probably the first time on the forum that I mentioned my best friend Nick.

We partied so much in the 80's, 90's.

 

But just for you Pat.

 

My best friend's favorite band is JUDAS FUCKKING PRIEST!

 

I saw "Painkiller" with him!

Well he must be a great guy then with good taste!

 

Thank you my brother.

 

I am very lucky! We met at Safeway like 38 years ago! He is amazing Pat. Still happily married with three sons. They love me like a dad.

Oh Pat, time flies by so fast regardless of lockdowns and life.

 

For me it's like when I was in school. Always looking at the clock. Hoping for 3 PM. It seemed like forever.

But what?

Like a flash of light, I have been out of college now for 25 years. WTF?
