VINYL

First remastered re-release of the debut full-length studio album by legendary British Heavy Metal band.
The album was Osbourne's first release following his departure from Black Sabbath and marks his second effort to begin a solo career (his first being in 1978 with members of Necromandus using the name Blizzard Of Ozz). This is also the first of two studio albums Osbourne recorded with guitarist Randy Rhoads prior to Rhoads' death in 1982. The album was a commercial success, being certified 4x Platinum in the U.S., a feat Osbourne would not achieve again until the release of "No More Tears" in 1991. The album has sold over 6000000 copies to date worldwide, making it Osbourne's best-selling solo album. In the UK, it was the first of four Osbourne albums to attain Silver certification (60000 units sold) by the British Phonographic Industry, achieving this in August 1981. It also ranked 13th on a Guitar World readers poll.

The ninth compilation album by legendary British Heavy Metal singer and his band.
The compilation serves as a career-spanning audio release, featuring 17 of Ozzy's greatest hit Singles compiled in one place for the first time in his career.
Through summoning demons from the depths of hell as the frontman of Metal pioneers Black Sabbath in their best days, partying hard through the '80s and landing on a reality show focusing on his dysfunctional family in the 2000s, Ozzy Osbourne has kept on the wicked side for the majority of his decades-spanning career in evil. Starting his solo bid almost immediately after his departure from Black Sabbath, Ozzy turned in classic Metal albums with early-'80s Randy Rhoads collaborations like "Blizzard Of Ozz" and "Diary Of A Madman", and stayed consistently strong with many Platinum-selling albums throughout the '90s, 2000s, and beyond.
The Ozzman has never shied away from live records, repackagings, or greatest-hits collections, either, and "Memoirs Of A Madman" collects standout cuts from each of his 11 studio albums, offering a full range of singles that shows the full spectrum of his development as the ever-menacing Prince of Heavy Metal Darkness. The 17 tracks here run in chronological order, from 1980s easily recognizable “Crazy Train” through to particularly dated-sounding early-'90s power ballads like “Mama I’m Coming Home” up to “Let Me Hear You Scream” from his 2010 studio offering "Scream". His Sabbath days get a nod or two as well, with a cover of their brooding piano ballad “Changes” that Ozzy and daughter Kelly serve up as an awkward daddy-daughter duet, and an unreleased live recording of “Paranoid” from 2010.
“Memoirs Of A Madman" has sold 4200 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 90 on The Billboard 200 chart.
This edition features 17 remastered classic tracks, including song “Changes”, with Kelly Osbourne, instead of song “Dreamer” like in other similar edition.
If you do not own any Ozzy, this is a good place to start! If you have not seen the footage from Rochester, New York in 1981 where Ozzy and Randy pump out “I Don’t Know”, “Suicide Solution”, “Mr. Crowley” and “Crazy Train”, then pick this one just to add them to your collection!!

The twelfth full-length studio album by legendary Heavy Metal singer and his band.
The album marks the first time that Osbourne collaborated with Watt and Bell. It is also his first album overall since he reunited with Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler for their final album, "13" (2013), with him as lead singer. It also marks the longest gap between two albums from Osbourne to date, spanning almost ten years since "Scream".
The album is charged with an unexpected crackle of life that hasn't graced an Ozzy album in a long time. It recalls the raw power of Black Sabbath, but also channels "Black Album"-era Metallica on the creeping, oozy "Today Is the End" and the unhinged Punk/Thrash on the Post Malone-assisted "It's a Raid". Despite a few weaker spots, "Ordinary Man" contains some of Ozzy's best solo work in years. The production is huge, but the energy is spontaneous, sounding like it was as fun to make as it is to listen to. 71 years old at the time "Ordinary Man" was released, Osbourne's voice in great shape, sounding more or less like he always has. How he's making music this strong after "riding the crazy train" for more than half-a-century is anyone's guess, but the better songs here rank among his best!
“This is quite possibly the most important album I have done in a very long time, probably since "No More Tears"” - Ozzy Osbourne.
"Ordinary Man" debuted at number 3 on the US Billboard 200 with 77 000 equivalent units, including 65 000 pure album sales. This is Osbourne's eighth top ten album on the chart as a solo artist, and equals the peak of his 2007 album "Black Rain". The album also debuted at number 3 on the UK Albums Chart, his highest-ever solo placing on the chart.
Release features Download Card for the album with additional bonus track "Take What You Want", which not appeared on the vinyl.

The ninth and the final full-length studio album by the legendary American Groove Metal band.
"The Live 101" album showed they were a technically talented and mature band. Not only that, but Pantera have had a long time to work on new material for this album. Unsurprisingly, there is very little "reinventing" going on here - Pantera are content to happily regurgitate every single good idea they've had since their much-acclaimed "Vulgar Display Of Power" release, and to their credit, they do it extremely well. On the first couple of listens, much of this come across as just a generic copy of the band's past recordings, from the production to the actual musical ideas, but deeper probing uncovers a slew of subtle hooks - notably from vocalist Phillip Anselmo - which we haven't heard from this band in years. In particular, "Goddamn Electric" (featuring a typically tuneless guest lead appearance from Slayer's Kerry King), "Yesterday Don't Mean Shit" and "Revolution Is My Name" stand out as the album's finest cuts, each staying very much true to the Pantera sound while offering just enough new elements to shrug off the ever-looming "rehash" tag that has plagued the band for much of their career as a major label recording act.
The cover art is a snapshot taken from the video of "Revolution Is My Name", the first single of the album.
The album reached number 4 on the Billboard 200 chart, number 8 on the Top Canadian Albums chart, and number 5 on the Top Internet Albums chart. It held its position in the Billboard 200 for over 12 weeks. The album's fifth track, "Revolution Is My Name", reached number 28 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks. Also, "Revolution Is My Name" was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance in 2001, but lost to Deftones' "Elite".
The album was certified Gold by the RIAA on May 2, 2000, however, the album has yet to reach Platinum status, making it Pantera's only major label studio album not to reach sales of 1000000.
In the 2000 Metal Edge Readers' Choice Awards, the album was voted "Album of the Year" and "Album Cover of the Year" (tying with Iron Maiden's "Brave New World" for the latter), while the single "Revolution Is My Name" won "Song of the Year".
The album was ranked at #2 on Guitar World's Readers Poll for "The Top 10 Guitar Albums of 2000".
The depressing end of Pantera’s career can do nothing to diminish the enduring impact of their sizable musical accomplishments, including the formidable final testament unexpectedly delivered by "Reinventing The Steel"!!

The second official live album by the legendary American Groove Metal band.
Recorded June 4th, 1994 at Donington Monsters Of Rock Festival.
Following up the 20th Anniversary Edition of their landmark #1 album "Far Beyond Driven", Pantera are continuing the celebration with the vinyl release "Far Beyond Bootleg- Live From Donington '94".
Recorded at the Monsters Of Rock Festival in Donington, England, on June 4, 1994, this live show was included on the second disc of the "Far Beyond Driven" reissue and is now available on LP for the first time, just one day prior to the show s 20th anniversary!
The show captures the band (singer Philip Anselmo, guitarist Dimebag Darrell, bassist Rex Brown and drummer Vinnie Paul) in top form, shredding through nine songs in 40 minutes.
Just a few months prior to the Donington show, Pantera had reached a major milestone when the legendary metal band's seventh studio album, "Far Beyond Driven", debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200, becoming the fastest-selling album of the band's career and its second consecutive Platinum release. "Far Beyond Driven" remained on the Billboard album chart for seven more months and many still regard it as the heaviest album to ever top the chart!!

The third official compilation album by legendary American Groove Metal band.
While the tragic 2004 death of Pantera guitarist "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott will prevent a full reunion from ever taking place, the Texan cowboys from hell are back with a pair of history-scouring releases. First of them is "History Of Hostility". 
"History Of Hostility" is a nine-track compilation that provides is one of the best possible primers for those looking to learn about Pantera. It features inclusions from all five of Pantera's studio albums, so you can tell that there's been a concerted effort to cover the band's career in as even-handed a fashion as possible: you'll get material from "Cowboys From Hell", "Vulgar Display Of Power", "Far Beyond Driven", "The Great Southern Trendkill", and "Reinventing The Steel".
If you've never delved into the Pantera catalog, then "History Of Hostility" is definitely a much better place to start!

It was considered a major return upon release for McCartney because he was embarking on his first world tour since the Wings Over the World jaunt back in 1975/1976. "Flowers in the Dirt" was also celebrated due to its musical quality, which earned McCartney his best reviews in years. Album immediately was entered the UK charts at #1.

Remastered re-release of the third full-length studio album by legendary British Synth-Pop band.
The duo's second-best-selling album, with over 4.5 million copies bought worldwide and peaked at number two on the UK Albums Chart, behind U2's “Rattle and Hum”.
The idea for this record was to write (or use) songs that were the extremely long, and then edit them down for radio play. This was of course the opposite of what everyone else was doing at the time, which was to write four-minute songs and then expand them for single releases. Featuring a mere six tracks, most of them well over six minutes in length, "Introspective" was a move back to the clubs for the Pet Shop Boys. Over the course of the album, they incorporated various dance techniques that were currently in vogue, including Latin rhythms and House textures. Melodically, the essential song structures as strong and multi-layered as the previous album, yet that hard to hear beneath the varying rhythmic textures that composed the bulk of each track. Nevertheless, the mixes are more compelling than the remixes on Disco, and the songs include several of their best numbers, including "Left to My Own Devices", "Domino Dancing", reconstruction of "Always on My Mind" and a cover of Blaze's club classic, "It's Alright".

First official re-release of the third compilation album by legendary British Progressive Rock band.
Anyone who knew anything about Pink Floyd knew that a dance band they were not, so this compilation, courtesy of Columbia Records, was intended ironically. Originally released in 1981, "A Collection Of Great Dance Songs" contains alternative mixes and versions of the band’s classics, now remastered from the original analogue tapes with album artwork faithfully reproduced.
The album contains alternative mixes of "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" (which comprises parts 1, 2, 4 and 7) edited down for time reasons, and "Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)" (which combines the intro from the single mix with the album version which fades out during the "if you don't eat your meat" ending). Also, the track "Money" was re-recorded as Capitol Records refused to license the track to Columbia/CBS Records. David Gilmour re-recorded the track himself, guitars, keyboards, bass guitar and vocals and co-producing the song with James Guthrie. Dick Parry reprised his saxophone role on the track. There are some differences between the re-recorded version and the original; mainly in the saxophone and guitar solos and the overall use of reverb and Gilmour repeating "away" at the end instead of the high pitch scat singing on the original. The drumming is noticeably different from Nick Mason's, especially during the guitar solo, with very little of the tom-tom fills heard on the original.
The album was certified Gold by the RIAA on 29 January 1982, Platinum on 6 July 1989, and Double Platinum in August 2001. The album reached number 37 on the United Kingdom charts and number 31 in the United States.

The second compilation album by legendary British Psychedelic/Progressive Rock band.
EMI decided to release a budget priced LP on their Starline label, combining early Singles, B-sides, album tracks and one unreleased number, "Biding My Time". The compilation contains material from the first three albums, "The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn", "A Saucerful Of Secrets" and "More".
"Relics" most noted for its inclusion of the band's first two Syd Barrett-era hit singles, "Arnold Layne" and "See Emily Play" (this re-release reverts to the original mono mixes of these two tracks). Also were included the B-sides of the three follow-up Singles, with the tracks "Paintbox", "Julia Dream" and "Careful with That Axe, Eugene" appearing in true stereo. The album also includes a previously unreleased studio recording of a Roger Waters composition, "Biding My Time", which had otherwise only been heard by live audiences as part of the Man And The Journey concert sequence.
Despite "Relics" is a compilation and not a regular studio album, it's a pretty good place to start with the band's early catalog. From "The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn", you get the goofy childishness of "Bike" and the mesmerizing "Interstellar Overdrive" - one of the band's trademark instrumental freak-outs; "The Nile Song," taken from the "More" soundtrack, is one of the heaviest songs the band recorded. A little bit of everything that made early Pink Floyd can be found here. Without a doubt, the disc is an essential part of the band's discography, not to be disregarded due to its overlap with studio album material!!

Remastered re-release of the eighth full-length studio album by legendary British Progressive Rock band.
Primarily developed during live performances, the band premiered an early version of the record several months before recording began. New material was recorded in two sessions in 1972 and 1973 at Abbey Road Studios in London. The band used advanced recording techniques at the time, including multitrack recording, tape loops, and analogue synthesizers. Snippets from interviews with the band's road crew, as well as philosophical quotations, were also used. Engineer Alan Parsons was responsible for many sonic aspects and the recruitment of singer Clare Torry, who appears on "The Great Gig in the Sky".
The record builds on ideas explored in Pink Floyd's earlier recordings and performances, while omitting the extended instrumentals that characterised their earlier work. A concept album, its themes explore conflict, greed, time, death, and mental illness, the latter partly inspired by the deteriorating health of founding member Syd Barrett, who departed the band in 1968.
The iconic sleeve, which depicts a prism spectrum, was designed by Storm Thorgerson, following keyboardist Richard Wright's request for a "simple and bold" design, representing the band's lighting and the record's themes.
"The Dark Side Of The Moon" helped to propel Pink Floyd to international fame, bringing wealth and recognition to all four of its members. It has been hailed by critics as one of the greatest albums of all time. 
In the UK, it is the seventh-best-selling album of all time and the highest selling album never to reach number one.
In the US the LP was released before the introduction of Platinum awards in 1976. It therefore held only a Gold disc until 16 February 1990, when it was certified 11× Platinum. On 4 June 1998 the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) certified the album 15× Platinum, denoting sales of 15,000,000 in the United States – making it their biggest-selling work there ("The Wall" is 23× Platinum, but as a double album this signifies sales of 11,500,000).
The record reached number one on the US Billboard Top LPs & Tape chart (now known as the Billboard 200). Although it held the number one spot in the US for only a week, it remained in the Billboard album chart for 741 weeks from 1973 to 1988. The album re-appeared on the Billboard charts with the introduction of the Top Pop Catalog Albums chart in May 1991, and has been a perennial feature since then. On the week of 5 May 2006, "The Dark Side Of The Moon" achieved a combined total of 1,716 weeks on the Billboard 200 and Pop Catalog charts. Upon a change in methodology in 2009 allowing catalogue titles to be included in the Billboard 200, "The Dark Side Of The Moon" returned to the chart at number 189 on 12 December of that year for its 742nd charting week. It has continued to sporadically appear on the Billboard 200 since then, with the total at 943 weeks on the chart as of June 2019.
With estimated sales of over 45,000,000 copies, "The Dark Side Of The Moon" became one of the best-selling albums worldwide of all time and is in the top 25 of a list of best-selling albums in the United States.
"The Dark Side Of The Moon" has frequently appeared on rankings of the greatest albums of all-time. In 1987, Rolling Stone listed the record 35th on its "Top 100 Albums of the Last 20 Years", and sixteen years later, in 2003, the album polled in 43rd position on the magazine's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time", and was voted 43rd again on the magazine's 2012 list. It came 29th in The Observer's 2006 list of "The 50 Albums That Changed Music", and 37th in The Guardian's 1997 list of the "100 Best Albums Ever", as voted for by a panel of artists and music critics. In 2013, "The Dark Side Of The Moon" was selected for preservation in the United States National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress for being deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

Remastered re-release of the ninth full-length studio album by legendary British Progressive Rock band.
Pink Floyd followed the commercial breakthrough of "Dark Side Of The Moon" with "Wish You Were Here", a loose concept album about and dedicated to their founding member Syd Barrett. The record unfolds gradually, as the Jazzy textures of "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" reveal its melodic motif, and in its leisurely pace, the album shows itself to be a warmer record than its predecessor. Musically, it's arguably even more impressive, showcasing the band's interplay and David Gilmour's solos in particular. And while it's short on actual songs, the long, winding soundscapes are constantly enthralling.
It was Pink Floyd's first album with Columbia Records, an affiliate of CBS; the band and their manager Steve O'Rourke had been dissatisfied with the efforts of EMI's US label Capitol Records. The band remained with EMI's Harvest Records in Europe.
"Have a Cigar" was chosen by Columbia as first single, with "Welcome to the Machine" on the B-side in the US.
In UK, with 250 000 advance sales, the album debuted at number three and reached number one the following week. Demand was such that EMI informed retailers that only 50 per cent of their orders would be fulfilled. With 900 000 advance orders (the largest for any Columbia release) it reached number one on the US Billboard chart in its second week. "Wish You Were Here" was Pink Floyd's fastest-selling album ever.
The album was certified Silver and Gold (60,000 and 100,000 sales respectively) in the UK on 1 August 1975, and Gold in the US on 17 September 1975. It was certified six times Platinum on 16 May 1997, and by 2004 had sold an estimated 13 million copies worldwide.  The album was a commercial hit in Europe, topping Dutch, English and Spanish charts – in Spain, the album remained at number one for 20 weeks.
Since then, the record has sold over 20 million copies.

The twelfth full-length album by legendary American Progressive Rock band.
The band's first album for Roadrunner Records' Loud & Proud label.
It probably takes a very strong and open mind for a Queensrÿche-fan to be able to like this record. This record generally alternates some highly experimental and interesting orogressive tendencies with other tracks which often try as it were to 'apologise' for this with a far more accessible direction, albeit less simplified than the more recent albums. Queensrÿche is a band with the will to experiment. They almost never do the same thing twice and the one time they did try to with "Operation: Mindcrime 2", they failed shamefully. No, this band is better off treading new grounds and finding new ways to play music for themselves. If they left the Metal scene, it’s because they have nothing more to say in the Metal language and learn to speak new languages. The experiment of 2011 is the present. 
In order to stick more to the concept, the band decided to structure their songs around the rhythm of the now. Drummer Rockenfield and bassist Jackson have developed a rhythm section as solid as ever, but now built around the alternative world of today. Guitarist Wilton might not be as much in the spotlight as he was back in the Metal days, but he plays a role reminiscent of any guitar player in a Alternative/Pop band and even though his playing is more subtle here, it adds so much to the music and he has a beautifully tight guitar sound. Vocalist Tate is in an ever-inspiring shape as he leads us through this new-found landscape with his warm, recognizable and above all outstanding vocals. If there’s any singer who I’d never get tired of its Geoff Tate. He’s really got the groove. The multicultural, ever-changing society of today results in the huge diversity of the songs themselves.
Yes, it’s chaos. Life is chaos. Queensrÿche dedicate this album to chaos. Experimental to the full and totally dedicated to the concept. The most important part of the album for the listener is to understand the concept before criticizing lyrical content.
Like the 2009 "American Soldier", "Dedicated To Chaos" was recorded by Queensrÿche as a quartet; Parker Lundgren, who was a guest guitarist in this album, subsequently became a permanent member of the band.
It's also first official Queensrÿche release to omit the umlaut over the "y" on the band logo.
Not Metal anymore, but very interesting experiment of the legend!!

The fifth full-length studio album by cult American Melodic Hard Rock/Heavy Metal band.
Despite the record's name, this is actually the band's fifth studio album. However, it is their third major label/worldwide release.
This is the first Quiet Riot album not to feature any cover songs, and the last to feature lead singer Kevin DuBrow until the 1993 album “Terrified”. It’s also the first Quiet Riot album to feature Chuck Wright, formerly of Giuffria, who replaced Rudy Sarzo on bass as an official member - prior to this, he had performed some uncredited bass work on the band's earlier albums. He would rejoin the band on an on/off basis over the years, and is in the current version of the band.
A heavier emphasis on keyboards suggests the band was trying to keep in step with such other chart topping bands as Night Ranger and Bon Jovi, as evidenced by the popular MTV video - stadium hymn "The Wild and the Young", and the more restrained "Twilight Hotel".
Although "QR III" was greeted favorably by their remaining fans, the album failed to match the mega-sales of their major label debut album. Following the massive success of "Metal Health" and the more modest reception of "Condition Critical" (which failed to duplicate "Metal Health"'s success, but still went top 20 and receive a Platinum certification), sales of "QR III" were even lower, reaching only No. 31 on the US charts. It marked Quiet Riot's final plunge away from stardom as the band's following releases would not enter the charts at all. With constant bickering behind the scenes, DuBrow was handed his walking papers shortly after the ensuing tour ended.

The second compilation album by legendary German Heavy/Speed/Power Metal band.
German Power Metallers celebrate their 30th anniversary with the release of a unique collection of songs from their outstanding back catalogue, including all available rare and unreleased tracks!
What better way to celebrate their anniversary as by diving deep into their own history, spanning three decades of an incomparable and an unbeatable Metal career – from the humble beginnings in the early 1980s, with their debut attempt "Prayers Of Steel", and back then calling themselves Avenger, through the flourishing 90s, that peaked in their 1996 classic approach "Lingua Mortis". All the way to the most recent years, which also featured Rage coming in third at the Bundesvision Songcontest in 2009, carving a quarter of a century in stone even more so!
Garnish all this with 21 albums released to date and add in some line-up changes, and you not only get your average German Metal combo, but a gathering of brilliant musicians that keep reinventing their own sound with every new creative vision to come!!
"The Soundchaser Archives" is an interesting and entertaining collection of tracks covering this iconic band’s journey through 30 years, displaying not only their ideas and influences, but also their work outside of Rage as well. This compilation is a real gem for die-hard Rage fans, and collectors of rare and unreleased works. Your hard-earned money worth to purchase this!!!

First American re-release of the first live album by legendary British Hard Rock/Heavy Metal band.
Breaking with '70s Heavy Metal tradition by releasing a live album after only two studio efforts (you're supposed to have three before the live one), Rainbow served up this double platter in 1977. It was recorded live over several German and Japanese dates in late 1976, during the Rising world tour.
"On Stage" is full of great songs and playing, it's one of the best live albums ever recorded. The production is very good. Produced by Martin Birch, who was responsible for much of Iron Maiden's production.
Going without saying, one should be sure going into this, that there's gonna be a lot of ingenious guitar licks being composed, adding a lot of life to tracks like "Catch the Rainbow" and "Sixteenth Century Greensleeves". Those tracks in particular are both on the slower side in comparison to many on the debut, but have an excellent delivery when performed live. Dio's untouched live vocal performance crossed with the unstoppable Ritchie Blackmore showcase some of the greatest moments in "live record" history. The help of Jimmy Bain on bass and Cozy Powell on drums, although less famous at the time, assist driving home and backing many of Blackmore's tangents. This would set the stage for what we should expect from those musicians on future releases.
The covers performed on here are pretty great; while "Mistreated" may seem redundant due to being taken from Blackmore's previous band, it's a nice touch hearing Dio sing it instead. Toney Carey on the keyboards obviously isn't too different from Jon Lord, but still pretty great. "Still I'm Sad" stands out as a unique one here, as it was originally just an instrumental cover on the studio album. But on this, we are given vocals and more intensity, in turn churning out a track that has more suspense, and you can't really hear it anywhere else...
Great release, with some unique output that you won't hear anywhere else!!
