Darren69 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Happy Baffurst day to you too my friend, even as a blue oval devotee I am happy to see the roaring lion win in their last year of factory involvement, sad but at 51 I know time marches on. Been loving these guys lately. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokken Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Listening to some Winger - Sahara album (1988) These guys got a lot of criticism in the day, but they were all fantastic musicians and this is a great melodic rock/metal album...a guilty pleasure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been loving these guys lately. Was a decent race! Kind of fairytale finish for the General, albeit in a Euro car but was good to see them get accross the line and see the car off nicely....and always good to watch the Giz drive!!! Can't say I was upset to see a certain car in the wall on lap 33 though! Will check out the OSI link, have not heard them before. 2 hours ago, Dokken said: Listening to some Winger - Sahara album (1988) These guys got a lot of criticism in the day, but they were all fantastic musicians and this is a great melodic rock/metal album...a guilty pleasure Agreed, great album, the first two Winger albums IMO are very worthy. Gotta have them guilty pleasures mate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My preference of the two is the Mark Slaughter fronted album. I just thought the vocals were a little more controlled and more easy to listen to, plus Vinnie's guitar work was more melodic and subdued on the second album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first album was great but the 2nd album put everything together. I often wonder what the next VVI album might have sounded like if it eventuated and furthermore with Mark OR if Slaughter woudl have happened anyway.

Yeah, it would have been interesting to see what direction they would have headed in if the band stayed together....a bit like the Dokken scenario...one will never know I guess!! I'm not sure if Mark would have stuck around anyway, as he was close with Dana and Vinnie was on the outer by that stage. My guess is that Vinnie would have got Robert Fleischman back as the singer!

I think there was also talk of the guy who fronted Madison to play with them, apparantly there are demo's around with him singing. I forget his name right now but they were around in that shamefully underrated same tier as Icon etc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryT Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Just received something very special in the mail. straight on the turntable as soon as I got home naturally. Woods of Desolation - Torn Beyond Reason. A great album from a somewhat legendary Australian black metal band from Wollongong. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

08Boss302 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Cathedral - Forest of Equilibrium. Amazing album, I remember when it was released, took me a little while to appreciate it as I was all about absolute speed and aggression but after a small while this got its claws in and to this day I still absolutely love it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In many ways I prefer that album. This is a great album but AFTHGB just has the edge. Any guesses where I bought them from BITD hahahah!!!!! I noticed the singer has fronted another band called "Harmony". I think on the same label as Theocracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
