Re: Let's hear it for Saraya!

I love both albums and revisit them fairly often. They were a solid live band too. Tony Rey has some tasty riffs and solos on both of them. Love Has Taken Its Toll Healing Touch One Night Away Drop the Bomb Queen of Sheba Hitchin' a Ride (this one got a lot of airplay near me back in the day) When t...

Re: Queensryche - Gonna Get Close To You (1986)

Don't remember ever hearing it on the radio, but it was songs like this that made them stand out. It was dark, different and just plain cool. That whole album was a massive step up from Warning, True, but there were much more interesting dark, different, and cool songs on this album that would have...

Re: Vibrato. Fan or not?

it depends if the person actually knows what they are doing.

For example, Belinda Carlisle does not, and it sounds like she is singing through a fan half the time. Same for Eddie Vedder on the song "Last Kiss".

For many Yanks, fine dining = eating your Taco Bell at a table rather than in a car or on the couch.
That would be funny if "British Cuisine" wasn't an oxymoron.

80s KISS had better songs and musicianship, so I like a few of those tunes.

So much better than Detonator even tho singles are not that good.
I prefer Reach as well. "No Surprise" is as good as anything from Detonator and it wasn't even a single.
