By the nature of the poll they are all good bands but something's gotta give!! Starting to get interesting now! Thoughts of voting have pushed this song into my head ....

I must dig it out ..... it's been a long time since I last bothered to listen to it i'm afraid.

I remember when CD's were emerging technology, there were all these fanfares about how durable they were, they wouldn't scratch, you could just wipe them clean blah blah blah .... what a crock! Just like vinyl, you scratch them and they're toast! My CD's and DVDs now just look pretty on shelves in my den ...... I play everything digitally now. The missus however still insists on buying DVD's .... donno why, we're running out of shelf room!!

Happy Birthday!!

meh

Many Happy Returns Jack Aubrey!

A fine actor who seemed to die very unexpectedly. This is proving to be a very dark year. RIP Ben Cross.

guess you chose "on your knees" ;) and submission! This could be the metal album of the century. I am trying to manage my expectations.

Good poll! I like both albums and bought both on week of release. Whilst I enjoy pretty much everything on Hi Infidelity, my vote just goes to Escape for being a more 'rocky' album. BTW, we have had the opportunity to see both bands live many times in both the UK and US and I must say REO always put on a great show. As for Journey, I just struggle with Arnel Pineda. They toured the UK for the brief period of time Jeff Scott Soto was lead singer and we got to see them in Manchester in 2007. I thought he added a new dimension to the sound but I guess he had too much ego for Neal 'I'm the boss and don't you forget it' Schon to handle!!

Happy Birthday Disk98!

Have a good one J2112YYZ!!!

Please accept my condolences PJ and apologies for the tardiness of my post.

I've had the same situation, didn't find anything serious just anemia. I am having the same procedure done again, not fun. Hope all turns out well for you. That's what prompted all of this - anemia. I do have a lot of stomach pain, so we shall see. Thoughts and prayers are with you Lorraine.

So sorry for this Disk98 ..... this virus is so cruel.

Well, if you're already accepting of their weirdness then maybe you should give the albums Toxicity, Mezmerize and Hypnotize a listen. Their albums are short. You can probably get those three done in about two hours. Toxicity is the one i have heard .... i'll try the others. Finally got to listen to both Mezmerize and Hypnotize. In both cases challenging, quirky and at times quite stunning music. I really like both albums.

I agree with a lot of what you say here '70-'75 produced amazing albums. Although I thought Technical Ecstasy & Never Say Die showed signs of a band who were starting to flag (hardly surprising considering the combination of legal issues and substance abuse going on with them!).Heaven & Hell rebooted things. I thought RJD did a super job on it and it is in its own right a great album.

Sabbath for the first two and A+ to three of the last four.

Hi Vis Metal!!

I had forgotten about this thread!!! Time to waken up now we're getting close to the 'good stuff' lol!

The Who on both counts
