I have rediscovered the Spread Eagle album Open to the Public this year and have been wearing it out. I have always liked it, but haven't listened to it for years, but after getting into the Charm City Devils new album, and them reminding me of Spread Eagle I pulled it out and been jamming to it big time. Great Album! Although didn't care for their first disc much, and the song bites I have heard from the singer Ray West's solo album didn't impress me.http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,921786#msg-921786Sun, 26 May 2013 19:08:39 +1000 Phorum 5.2.16 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,922084#msg-922084 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,922084#msg-922084
I've also recently rediscovered Status Quo - Dog Of Two Head (1971) - really raw album and very different to their "known" sound.]]> OzzMosiz NoticeboardSat, 08 Dec 2012 21:53:38 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,922005#msg-922005 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,922005#msg-922005Another cool cd is Liquifury by Hurricane.I bought the original and the rerelease with the bonus songs.The bonus tracks in my opinion complete these albums well.Thanks to Frontiers for putting this out in a jewel case too.]]> Border Rat NoticeboardSat, 08 Dec 2012 05:49:28 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,921972#msg-921972 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,921972#msg-921972Spys ST and Behind enemy lines

As you can guess I have been updating to Rock Candy reissues. All the above sound great even after all these years!!

Great call in an earlier post reference Tygers and Uriah Heep.

Funny you mention Magnum because I loved Magnum from 85 through to the early 90's but sort of lost interest for a while and when they reformed I had moved on - however after buying The Gathering set a year or two back and reading a few glowing reviews of their most recent cd I decided I would splash the cash and am absolutely love it!

Since then I have ordered the last 4 and plan to get more asap!

So more a rediscovered band than album -and a bloody great one at that!]]> JIMMY AGATES NoticeboardThu, 06 Dec 2012 17:05:49 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,921832#msg-921832 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,921832#msg-921832
Steve Plunkett: My Attitude (1991)

What a pleasant surprise, a cool mix of Hysteria era Def Leppard style Big Choruses, AOR, Power Pop and Y&T style Hard Rock; so much more enjoyable than anything Autograph ever recorded... Can't get enough of this one, Highly Recommended!!!]]> ROB D NoticeboardThu, 06 Dec 2012 13:50:21 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,921829#msg-921829 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,921829#msg-921829 Andy G NoticeboardThu, 06 Dec 2012 11:15:21 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,921827#msg-921827 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,921786,921827#msg-921827
