Songs From The Big Chair [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [Platinum SHM-CD] [Limited Release]Tears For FearsGreat album!
This was an '80's classic , everybody knows the MTV classics like Shout, Everybody Wants to Rule the World and Head Over Heels....but there's so much more to this album , a real genuine artistic achievement! This was no minor hit album , the band really bring it.....i love this album, it easily holds up in today's modern world. Platinum SHM-CD sound is excellent......sounds killer on my system....never heard it sound better. Mini LP replica and inner sleeve is excellent. Highly recommended!

Slowhand 35th Anniversary Deluxe Edition [SHM-CD] [Regular Edition]Eric ClaptonSounds great!
Sounds great on SHM-CD. I wish this was a Mini LP, but i guess you sometimes can't have everything. It's all good though , the deluxe live disc is from '77. It's a very good standard Clapton show from those days and the sound quality is great on that as well. Nice mastering. I guess i would sum this review up by saying that "it's great"..... It's the mellow '70's Clapton era.

Journey [Cardboard Sleeve] [Limited Release]JourneyAmazing album!
The original Journey's 1st album released in '73! Killer fusion album, experimental genius oozing with energy! No filler here, this album is killer from start to finish.

Greatest Hits 1973-1988 [Blu-spec CD] [Limited Release]AerosmithKiller , great sound!
I love the way this Greatest Hits album sounds, i think i like the sound on this one better than the individual "Toys" and "Rocks" albums (even though they're good sounding too). This Greatest Hits album has a more "in your face" sound , good and clear....the way Aerosmith should sound. And plus you get all the great songs from all the great Aerosmith albums from the '70's, in one album! I love this one......highly recommended!
-
Point Of EntryJudas PriestKiller!
This album is different from the previous forever classic British Steel , but it still kicks ass without a doubt! Some of the grooves on this album are so heavy! If you're a fan of Priest, you'll love this one....Solar Angels, Desert Plains , etc.... I love every song on this album. Remastered sound is very good indeed.....Enjoy!

Paper Money [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [SHM-CD]MONTROSEGreat Montrose album!
This is a much different album than the Montrose debut. It's not as straight forward with hard rock numbers but it's a well crafted creation. Every song still rocks! I love this album as much as the first one, Sammy's still onboard here, and he sounds great. What a great album by Montrose, i'm glad he went in a different direction with this one, classic '70's. SHM-CD sound is great along with very nice Mini LP. Highly recommended!!!
-
Makin' Magic [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [SHM-CD] [Limited Release]Pat TraversGreat album!
This is a great album filled with riffs and solos. Tight band , great drumming from Nick McBain, tight bass playing from Peter Cowling. Nice production, i love Pat Travers work from his 1st album to Crash and Burn. Very nice remastering SHM-CD sound and the Mini LP is great with inner sleeve replica. This album rocks as does all of Travers' work from the '70's. I can't wait to hear his Live album from '78! Highly recommended!!
-
Montrose [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [SHM-CD]MONTROSEKiller debut!
Montrose rocks!!! This is a killer album , Ronnie Montrose plays his ass off....there's no let up of hard rock goodness! A young Sammy Hagar here and he sounds terrific here. The original Montrose was a great band, and Ronnie was a legendary Les Paul player and musician. SHM-CD sound is great and Mini LP replica is great too. Great album from the early '70's, that sounds great today...a real classic! Highly recommended!
-
Climbing [Blu-spec CD2]MountainA real classic!
Great , great album...my fave Mountain! Mississippi Queen kicks it off and there's no let up after that, just a straight up vintage classic album. Wonderful creation from Leslie West in the late '60's. Blu-Spec CD2 sound is terrific, sounds great! You cannot go wrong with this one....Highly recommended!!!!
-
El Loco [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [SHM-CD] [Limited Release]ZZ TopSounds great!
Another great album from the little band from Texas! I love the sound and production that ZZ Top does in the studio. They always made the effort to produce a killer sounding album. Always tinkering around to get different guitar sounds and effects. This one is a little more funkier than earlier albums, but still killer songs. It rocks! SHM-CD sound is great, there's nothing wrong with this album, it's great! Mini LP replica is great and comes complete with inner sleeve replica. Recommended!!

Future Game [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [SHM-CD] [Limited Edition]Fleetwood MacGreat release!
Very nice. To be honest, i never knew much about early Mac, but i bought Then Play On because of Peter Green. I liked that album so i was curious about some more early Mac. I'm glad i bought this , this album is beautiful....very inspiring , spiritual uplifting music. Like a breath of fresh air! Very late '60's early '70's vibe. All the tunes on this album are great, no filler. SHM-CD sounds great to me, i don't know if this was remastered or not but i thought it sounded excellent. No complaints, very clear and warm. Mini LP is excellent, thick high quality cardboard stock. Highly recommended!!!

Brothers And Sisters - Super Deluxe Edition [Limited Edition] [SHM-CD]The Allman Brothers BandAWESOME!!!!
This is an awesome album, no filler on this one...just one great song after another! The outtakes are killer and the live Winterland set sounds phenomenal! The band are as tight as ever.... With the addition of SHM-CD you can't go wrong. Includes a killer high quality 30 page booklet with great pics. Great gatefold too.... Killer release.....highly recommended!!!!

One Way...Or Another [Cardboard Sleeve] [SHM-CD] [Limited Release]CactusKiller!
Great release! This American band from the early '70's rocked! Killer old school guitar hard rock. Kick-ass cranked up Marhsall and wah-wah licks all over the place. This band was tight, rythym section of Bogert and Appice is insane! These guys rock out!!! Sound quality is excellent , SHM-CD is a plus! Sounds killer! The mastering on this release is just the way i like it..very low and quiet, so you have to crank it....it sounds awesome...right in your face. Mini LP is killer, thick cardboard stock....with a great gatefold and includes a killer poster inside. Highly recommended Enjoy!
