    What caught my attention about this release was how cool the Beatles mono collection is. I bought both Beatles stereo and mono collections on cd and I was surprised how often I preferred some of the mono mixes.

    It was quite a revelation.

    I'm not interested in the vinyl aspect of this, but I'll wait it out for the cd collection price drop (a mistake I made with the Beatles sets, lol), it's a worthy add to the collection imo.

    I can wait for the right price though.

    Amazon Prime Day or Black Friday, usually Superdeluxeedition posts the deep discounts for box sets (they'll post the best price, it might be Amazon Italy or Amazon France where the best deal's at) . They should have made Stray Cats 2 CDs and included some of the Metamorphosis cuts. At 150 US, it'll probably drop below 100. Hopefully there will be a bunch of ABKCO era deluxe editions to come but as far as I know, Mick and Keith have no involvement or interest in promoting any of it, even though the entire catalog is all under Universal. 

    Not great timing for the people who were going to put 700 dollars down for that mammoth Pink Floyd box set, but once that comes out, the fans are going to put all the "exclusive to the box set" out there,  post the videos on You Tube, but Pink Floyd will probably have a fair amount of it up on their official pages.  

     

  2. There's also the box set (which is a decent 20 bucks), what's on Neil Young's Archives I box set and Stephen Stills' compilation & his "Just Roll Tape" which were a lot of demos at the end of Buffalo Springfield. 

    The third album is like listening to Page era Yardbirds for future Led Zep songs.

    Here's the deal: Van Halen I, Van Halen 1984, and Van Halen 5150 are some of the best albums ever made.  Eddie Van Halen is a groundbreaking guitarist.

    But, Ed and Alex are dicks.  3 singers, 3 breakups.  Totally dissed Michael Anthony, which is bullshit. 

    We see a theme here.

    Sammy wants them to be on friendly terms, because life is short.  That's cool.  But Ed and Alex have some apologizing to do themselves.

    I think when you build a lot of stuff up against someone, you don't really think about the good times. 

    Sam became defensive about Mike's abilities as a player. Over the years Alex became Ed's yes man but after reading Rising, he and Dave were the driving force in pushing Ed hard and pushing each other to greatness. 

    With the first VH album turning 40 in a couple of years, they're probably going to plan something around it with Dave. Even though Ed said Dave didn't seem interested in a new album and it seemed like Dave was done with Van Halen, more recently (on a Roth Show episode), he did hint that it will probably happen. They take long breaks from each other, which is how I also think GNR are going to be from this point on, but GNR did the right thing by not waiting too long to do it.

    No probably about it.  18 hour flight from Austrailia to Texas - they have shows before, day of, and after in Austrailia / New Zealand.  They sure as hell aren't flying 36 hours to lip sync and play air guitar for a half time show that Axl has already made fun of.  Maybe someday though...
