Mmh...un sito greco...con tutto il rispetto tendo a non fidarmi molto....e,comunque,la mia copia originale l'ho trovata un po' di tempo fa

 

Pure io

 

Anche io ho trovato la prima stampa un paio di annetti fa oramai. Però se la notizia è riportata su Melodicrock.com, che è uno dei migliori siti in circolazione, se non il migliore, una fregatura non è sicuro.

These partnerships proved extremely successful with tracks like "Bad Time For Goodbye," "More Than A Memory," "Hard To Find An Easy Way," and "Take Me Home" all becoming immediate fan favorites and remaining completely relevant in today's music market despite the passage of nearly 20 years.

Non no l'avevi detto!

Sul topic "AOR da avere" hai parlato di ristampe degli Outside Edge: dove l'hai trovata la notizia?

 

E' arrivata la conferma di quello che anticipava thunder un po' ti tempo fa, la doppia ristampa degli Outside Edge. Lo dice il sito melodicrock.com:

AOR HEAVEN CLASSIX OUTSIDE EDGE DOUBLE HEADER:
Outside Edge are clearly one of the bands that fate should've been a good deal kinder to, for despite releasing two albums on major labels in a period (the mid-80s) when melodic rock was surely at its peak, the British group just seemed to be overlooked – certainly at home – despite some pretty high profile support slots to the likes of Bryan Adams and Manfred Mann's Earth Band showing on their CV. Interestingly, whilst the group had been met with little more than a cursory nod in the UK, they were at least better known in European circles, where the group's product is highly revered and previous CD releases have been commanding quite hefty premiums.
The self-titled Outside Edge album had been released in France after the trio had impressed label executives at WEA having spent time in the country gigging in the early 80s in the post Liner guise of Spoilers, a Police influenced new wave outfit (who released two singles through the same label in 1980). The musical experiment that was Spoilers had eventually led to the three musicians finding a more natural groove and that was a decision that had looked to have paid dividends when WEA France excitedly offered an album deal. The release of the record, although criminally ignored back in the UK, nonetheless paved the way for the band – now bolstered in number with the addition of keyboard player Peter Giles – to gain the support slot on Bryan Adams' 1985 UK tour and a subsequent deal with 10 Records.
The first fruits of the new relationship with 10 (who also had Manowar, Warrior and Gary Moore on the roster) came in the tasty form of 'Running Hot' (now also reissued as part of the AOR Heaven Classix series). Produced by Terry Manning (ZZ Top/Joe Cocker/Molly Hatchet) and released in 1986, the group subsequently toured in support of the album throughout Europe opening for Manfred Mann's Earth Band; also gaining a spot at the Reading Festival in August of that year.
Bizarrely, after the label had been championing the forthcoming new album ("More Edge") in the press, it's release was suddenly shelved after the 10 Records operation was decamped to Los Angeles and it became evident that the, as yet untitled, new record would not be getting a US release after all. Or a release at all, as it transpired. One may ask why the mother label, Virgin, failed to pick the record up for release at the time?
"More Edge" as it was called later on got released for the first time through Virgin Sweden in the year 2000.
The AOR Heaven Classix releases has been as usually digitally remastered by Chris Lyne (Soul Doctor) with additional liner notes from Dave Reynolds. Both CDs are now available through AOR HEAVEN and selected retailers.

 

Intanto mi e' arrivata la ristampa dell'omonimo di John Parr.E' una versione mini-lp di una label coreana,la Big Pink.Non mi fidavo molto,perche' andando sul sito che avevo trovato,mi comparivano un po' di culetti assortiti...e ,quindi,tutto lasciava presupporre l'inchiappettata..
Invece e' fatto tutto molto bene,compreso booklet coi testi.Il prezzo piu' basso l'avevo trovato su Amazon.de(anche se spediscono dalla Corea e quindi ci vuole un po')...intorno ai 16 euro piu' sped.Ne vale la pena:gran bel disco,con bonus track la classica ST.Elmo's Fire.

Insieme,nella posta,e' arrivato l'ultimo di Steve Lukather:fantastico!Right the wrong...che pezzo

 

La Rock Candy ristamperà l'omonimo dei Faster Pussycat, finalmente.

 

Tiro su questo vecchio topic per chiedervi un paio di cose.
Esistono modi per richiedere ristampe alla case discografiche (raccolta di firme e robe del genere)?
Quali sono i dischi che non riuscite piú a reperire e di cui vi interrsserebbe la ristampa?

I miei:
Ark - Burn the Sun (trovato a poco su ebay ma l'avrei preso volentieri nuovo)
Coroner - Grin e Mental Vortex
The Gathering - Nightime Birds e Mandylion (si trovano a prezzi spropositati oppure a poco il "cofanetto" economico con tutti i cd a pochissimo ma senza booklet)
Sadist - Tribe

Ovviamente ristampe intelligenti. Ovvero solo le tracce originali e se vogliono aggiungere bonus o live in un cd a parte.
Sono diventato pignolo invecchiando

 

L'argomento può essere interessante e della questione stampe e ristampe si parla diffusamente nel topic La vostra discoteca. Probabilmente è anche sbagliato limitare questa discussione alla sezione rock - hard rock. Potrebbe stare meglio in Sondaggi.
