Re: How has Back In Black sold 25 million copies in the USA?
Because it's a stone cold perfect classic record?? idk... Again, someone who missed the point. Vh1 and Blizzard of Ozz and two dozen other albums are stone cold perfect classic records as well. They haven’t sold 25 million units. It's the perfect sweet spot of blues based rock (not metal) that has ...

Re: The Replacements - Tim, Let It Bleed edition
What is it with Replacements fans always wanting to change the way the albums sound? Reminds me of Hollywood starlets with the fucking plastic surgery and botox. "Everyone agrees that I'm gorgeous and my face is perfect on camera... I must change this somehow." I don't get it at all. Last...

The Replacements - Tim, Let It Bleed edition
The remixed version of the classic Tim album from 1985 is out today with a much-needed Ed Stasium remix. When it was released it was a huge album for myself and many others - great songs, great performances..... and a crappy sounding mix. We lived with it because it was such a good record, but this ...

Re: How has Back In Black sold 25 million copies in the USA?
Where I grew up, when I was 16 Back in Black was released. It instantly became our favourite record, and was played at every house party, bush party, bar, etc. for the next four years at peak levels and was easily most peoples go-to rock album. Everybody loved it and owned it. This doesn't surprise...

Re: Is Rocka Rolla the worst Priest album?
I also like it quite a lot, and even moreso the Best of that had songs from the first 2 albums. It's not modern metal, but interesting early 70's hard rock as others have mentioned.

Re: Why Isn't The Black Guy in Rolling Stones a Member Yet?
Wikipedia says Ron Wood was made official after a year of playing with the Stones, and a full partner financially after 15 years. The guy on bass has been in the band 29 years and still isn't even a member. I'm sure the paycheck is good, but Jesus Christ. Can't throw the guy a bone and list him as ...

Hoping the Stones can finally put together one more great record that they haven't quite been able to do for the last forty years. Who knows?

Re: Was “Crazy Train” an instant hit when the song was released?
It wasn't like a "hit" song on the radio, but it was known and liked by rock fans pretty much immediately. Everyone was interested in what Ozzy was going to do after Sabbath, but it was definitely Randy's playing that got everyone's attention.

I remember Johnny from back in the day when he was in the Cadillac Tramps, we did their shows up here in Canada. No real stories, just a solid guitar player, good look and a fun band.
