All the US has had to do is run and work hard and that’s enough. 

Dreadful.  

Awesome, enough said. 

Farewell Robbie, you were a brilliant actor. 72 is no age these days. 

Craig Charles an old-Rush fan, who knew?

RIP Nichelle Nichols

Crock of shit.

Could one say Uli Jon Roth-era and Mathias Jabs era to distinguish them? 

However, Michael Schenker is on the 1st album which puts a fly in the ointment of my very loose distinction between eras. 

 

IMO they were graced by 3 exceptional lead guitarists although I've not listened to the 1st album to know if Micheal had reached his UFO-level yet.

 

Michael Schenker played lead guitar on Lovedrive.

70s Scorpions has little in common with 80s and later Scorpions. 

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath

Sad Wings Of Destiny - Judas Priest

2112 - Rush

Van Halen - Van Halen

Taken By Force - Scorpions

Rising - Rainbow

Heaven and Hell - Sabbath

Number of The Beast - Iron Maiden

Blackwater Park - Opeth

Lateralus - Tool

Kiss doing 2112? No thanks. Listened to it once - it’s garbage!

In Absentia is their breakout album and still sounds fresh today. Great mix of songs, sounds and Gavin’s jaw dropping drums.

I’m loving the album and the bonus tracks.

To me this the album that The Incident should have been and is far better than that album.

There’s not a lot of new ground but you can really hear the difference between this and a SW solo album. Gavin’s playing is off the charts good too.

I have the album! As usual when I wanted just one item from amazon I ordered two items to put it over £20, making sure the second item is a pre-order a few weeks away. Then when my item is dispatched I cancelled the other item via the chat thingy, and voila free delivery secured again! Who's the daddy now Bezos??? HA HA HA!

What do you think?

I don’t like pop music. 

Justin Bieber has a condition called Ramsey Hunt.

And any Cockney will tell you it  perfectly defines him…
