Savoy Brown : Songs From the Road. Good time Blues and Boogie. They've been at it for over 40 years. They also seem to be getting better with age. This also comes with a DVD. Well worth the price.

Chris Spedding : Pearls. This is a mix of Rock, Jazz and Instrumentals. I swear to God, he's getting better with age. I really like this one.

Blackmore's Night : Dancer and the Moon. At this point, you get what you expect from them. Finely crafted music arranged in sometimes inspired moments. Plus it comes with an interview DVD and some music videos.

Ten Years After : Recorded Live ( Expanded Version ). The original version was released in 1972. There was nothing wrong with it. I never did like drum solos, but in those days a 10 minute drum solo was SOP. Anyway, they've added almost 70 minutes of unreleased stuff from the same tour. Mostly jams. Some of it's good and lots of it is great. The biggest problem was American radio. It played a stripped down version of I'm Going Home and more often I'd Love To Change the World. That was it. Quite a career synopsis, I must say, www.youtube.com/watch?v=W87Ycrb7xP8

Wicked Lady : The Axeman Cometh. I really like this. Hard early 70's British Rock with a hard Bluesy edge to it. According to the liner notes, these guys cleared a bar with one chord. They made 2 albums, both live. Worth a listen or two or 3. I went through this early 70's thing a month or so ago ( Fuzzy Duck, Brainticket, Human Instinct, you know........ Bands that I hadn't heard of. But by being turned onto one, you find another and another. But Wicked Lady stood out and so did Fuzzy Duck. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYJ_hd-ALO0

The Human Instinct : Stoned Guitar. This is good, very good. They take riffs from other songs and jam over them. These guys were from New Zealand and almost made it here. Again.......... American radio in all its wisdom didn't play their material. Nice going guys...... Anyway..... here's a sample of what we all missed in 1970. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnzvh-Tkjc8

Star One : Live On Earth. Arjen Anthony Lucassen is a Dutch Composer and Guitarist. His on going project is a band named Ayreon. Its HEAVY Rock Opera. A combination of Progressive Rock and Metal. Lucassen is a pretty good guitarist and the music is cool. He has another band named Star One that plays its own music and some of Ayreon's music as well. Live On Earth is a concert he put on in the Netherlands. Its also on DVD. I watched the show on Youtube and was so impressed that I bought the CD.

Ayreon : Actual Fantasy Revisited. This was actually the last Ayreon album I bought. Its also my favorite. It makes me smile by how good it is. This was originally recorded in 1996 and released. In 2004, he reviewed the masters and decided to put real drums, bass and some other things on it and rerecorded everything he wanted to change, thus, the title change. What's cool is he gives you DVD along with the CD. The DVD has a 5.1 surround sound mix, a stereo mix of the original album with an album length video, and a short of them making the changes. Worth twice the asking price. This has renewed my faith in music.

Tangerine Dream : Lost In Strings Vol. 1. There's really good stuff and some bad here. Its a collection of Guitar solos from the Tangerine Dream. You can't call it Rock N Roll by any stretch of the imagination. I got exactly what I expected. Edgar Froese is the founder, leader and in these cases, the main guitar player of Tangerine Dream. Some of these songs I've heard on live discs, a few not at all. This is all Electronica. Its not for everyone. I've been a fan since 1974. If you're having a party and want to get rid of some of the riff-raff, this is an excellent way of weeding out the non hackers. I used to do this, so its probably not a proper thing to do.... Just sayin' that if it becomes necessary, this is how you do it. One final note..... Edgar died a little less than a year ago.

Indeed, Cannibal Corpse. Horror and Death Metal go hand in hand.
