Franklin, you should get Stormbringer one of these days, I just wouldn't want you to expect it to be as good as Burn. Then again, maybe you will.

Stormbringer is problematic. It was mostly the Hughes/Coverdale Show with all the funk influences. Ritchie has said he hated it, and at times it's hard to even notice he's there. Still, Lady Double Dealer and the very Rainbow-ish title track are reason enough to buy the album (though I like the live versions on Made In Europe a lot better).
Believe it or not, I've never heard Come Taste The Band!

I got the two aforementioned Motörhead albums "Overkill" and "Ace Of Spades" on last Sunday (thanks to my fiancé for bringing them), on this Monday I bought the first two legendary Dingo albums (at last, after all these years).
The count is now 684.
I'm still waiting for the three belated Edge Of Sanity albums and the Iron Maiden "Flight 666" double DVD that I ordered almost a month ago, already made one addition: Sebastian Bach's "Forever Wild" DVD...I guess they're still waiting to get one or two Edge Of Sanity albums for my order...
I guess tomorrow another company will send me another belated backorder, Iced Earth's "The Glorious Burden" (a conceptual album featuring Tim "Ripper" Owens) that I ordered just before the New Year...The company also did manage to get me a rare 2004 remaster of the super-rare 1988 album "Badly Dreaming" of the Finnish heavy metal vocalist Annica..."He is the King of all kings, the keeper of light...He holds eternity's wings"

Originally posted by DiosSword View PostI second that. Burn is among Purple's best. Ritchie sounds revitalised, and you've got not one, but two legendary singers (one of whom is an excellent bassist) replacing Ian Gillan and Roger Glover. It's been a favourite ever since I first got it on cassette almost 30 years ago.

And I'm not much of a Coverdale fan. I like Burn despite Coverdale, that's how good the songs are.

Today's visit at one of the local flea markets produced a good bargain:
Queensrÿche - Greatest Hits (Capitol 2000) for just 3 euros...and in good condition as well."He is the King of all kings, the keeper of light...He holds eternity's wings"

How are you liking The Glorious Burden? It's not a concept album though, just a theme album.
I think it's one of the great albums of the last decade...A true masterpiece. And Tim is just beyond awesome on it...proving that he truly is one of the best metal singers of all time.

Originally posted by Gardener View PostExactly. Purple disbanded in 1976 and the first version of Whitesnake was created in 1978. Jon Lord joined the third version of the band and recorded the first album ("Trouble") with them, and Paice joined the band about a year later for the recording of "Lovehunter".

Originally posted by Sabbathman View PostI'm a huge Ripper fan, not only for his time with Priest, but also Beyond Fear, YJM and solo...and the latest Charred Walls Of The Damned...I already got the Gettysburg DVD EP, but before I watch that, I must delve into The Glorious Burden first...I'm having a lengthy live DVD project going on right now, I'm watching all the live DVDs that have been waiting to be watched for a while, Iced Earth will have it's turn soon...
Have you checked out Tim's early work on a band called Winters Bane? They put out an album called Heart Of A Killer, its pretty good straight forward metal piece. First part of the album is a concept piece.
The Gettysburg DVD is a really more of a musical documentary about the battle of Gettysburg...It's pretty entertaining though.
I just ordered the Charred Walls Of The Damned...haven't gotten it yet.should arrive next week I hope. Atleast Ghost Town sounds awesome!

Since that song and the album, Ripper has convinced me album by album, band by band. I remember reading from somewhere that when Ripper departed from Priest, Glenn Tipton stated that Ripper is going to have a great career. How right Glenn was! I consider Ripper to be one of the best metal singers of all time, he just fits in wherever he goes. His time with Priest was important for the band as a whole because Ripper helped to keep the Priest machine going through 1997 to 2003 but also it was like Ripper was going through the heavy metal university of Priest and he graduated with flying colours, ready for a career of his own with different high-grade metal artists & bands.
Wherever Ripper is, my attention switches into a sharp focus - it's always a pleasure to hear him perform. The next chance where I could see him live is the show of Hail! in Helsinki on March 25th. I saw him with YJM back in 2008, damn he blasted away with songs new and old!"He is the King of all kings, the keeper of light...He holds eternity's wings"
