The HELL you can't! Kerry King isn't fit to tie Phil Collen's shoes.
KERRY KING AND SUARON SUCK SHIT!

>Look at Pour Some Sugar on Me and a song like Dead Skin Mask.

Okay. Pour Some Sugar on Me is an excellent, quality song even though it was
written for a Top-40-type audience. Dead Skin Mask is a crock of dissonant
horseshit that was written by an overrated band who has ABSOLUTELY NO TALENT.
Any guitarist who needs that many effect pedals to cover up his playing isn't
fit to be compared to a guitarist who uses only a few, light effects.

>When you can hear the guitars on Pour Some Sugar on Me they just make me think
>Jimi Hendrix...Not!  Hell Phil is such a sad guitar player he couldn't
>even come up with some new riffs for Adrenalize.

At least you CAN hear the guitars on Pour Some Sugar On Me. Why the FUCK are
you comparing him to Jimi Hendrix? Their music styles are NOWHERE near each
other, let alone their guitar styles. And how can you say that the riffs aren't
new when you haven't listened to the album?

>So all you Def Leppard fucks quit Making Love to a Man and baptize

Suaron, YOU make love to more men in FIVE minutes than WE do in a LIFETIME! YOU
ARE THE SORRIEST EXCUSE FOR A MUSIC CRITIC THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN! Also, your
semi-satanic call has no effect; nobody wants to "baptize" themselves in your
period except Maple!

You sure are one who knows about intellectual levels, especially yours (the

It IS IS IS monetary in this sense:
   The digipak (a communist plot) is being developped specifically to keep
   the longbox producers in business.  But the record companies are trying
   to shove "environmental concerns" into our brains.  yeah.  right.  

It has been discussed over and over in rec.music.cd that a cd costs between
$1 and $5 to produce (depending on who you believe)...the extra 5 cents for
packaging is noise, and most likely get passed on to the cool $16-per-cd-paying
consumer.

people should hang out in rec.music.cd for awhile - the digpak war flames up
there regularly (as much as the Rush-Does-Not-Suck war comes through here...
or Nirvana lyrics).  WARNING: don't even TRY to post anything there that isn't
specifically CD related, or you'll learn the true meaning of "anal retentive."

In the prog-rock section of my local CD store (Ocean, NJ, USA) I've seen at
least one album by Gandalf, that's been there a few months. I don't know
if this is the same band or not & I don't know if I want to spend $22 to find
out. Maybe some courageaous record company decided to release this
domestically (like the Gentle Giant albums.) Now if they'd only do the same
for Caravan.

It's called "Smells like Nirvana" and I heard it last night on Z-ROCK (no flames ;-) )

It's hilarious.  It primarily pokes fun at the fact that the original's lyrics are
unintelligible.  Lines like "Hear the music, that we're playing/Can you tell me what
I'm saying?"...  The best part is the "guitar solo".  It sounds like Al's humming it
through a kazoo...

	Well Maple, for once I agree with you except for tw minor changes;

>alt.guitar	                => alt.music.guitar
>alt.bass                        => alt.music.bass

	Alt.guitar, and alt.bass don't raely discuss music. They are for 
musicians who discuss aspects of the respective instruments, discuss new
products, and trade ASCII sheet music. To put them under alt.music might
give people the impresion that they discuss music that is heavey on guitar or
bass. I think they should be left the way they are.

Depends on what kind of music you want. I would suggest one of 
the live-compilations. I particularly like "The Best Band You've 
Never Heard in Your Life". It's great and has an incredible 
version of "Stairway to Heaven". Anyway all "You can't do that on 
stage anymore" albums are great too.

W.A.S.P. just released a single, "Chainsaw Charlie (Murders In The
New Morgue)" and will release a new album, titled "The Crimson Idol"
soon. I don't know the line-up for W.A.S.P.; I know only that Blackie
Lawless is there and Chris Holmes is out. I've not seen any mention of
the drummer or other members of W.A.S.P. anywhere.

I think that they had only two great albums and one quite good
album... the great albums were I Wanna Be Somebody and The Last
Command and Live In The Raw was quite good one. Electric Circus and
Headless Children were not too good albums.... IMHO.

   It's pretty good. Unpretentious... Just Gilmour and his guitar. I quite like
his playing, but he tends to repeat himself. It seems he needs the members of

1.) You totally missed the smiley I put at the end of the line.
2.) I already admitted that OOTD is an instrumental. However, 
	the way I view Echoes and SOYCD, since they actually have
	lyrics (and I don't care how few lyrics Echoes has), then
	they are not instrumentals.
3.) As for SOYCD being split into parts: Since I can't usually 
	tell where each part begins, I lump I-V as Part I and
	VI-IX as Part II.
4.) If you would quit telling people that they don't know their
	Floyd (and learn to spell MADCAP), maybe then I'd take
	you seriously. Yes, I know my Floyd. I have every single
	legal American release by them and Roger's solo work, plus
	I've heard the vast majority of Syd's and Dave's solo work.
