I think we may have a syntax error.  Do tell, which album?

Apologies, I inlined the link and just realized it's not obvious with all browsers.  Check again, I fixed it. :)

I was thinking more along the lines of Queensryche, BOC, Dio, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest instead of pseudo-intellectual/D&D/historical analysis/Neal Peart Lyrics and Rush's technically mastery of 98 pieces of instruments. Don't get me wrong, I like Rush. Just looking for something well recorded more along the lines Ozzy's boneyard (minus Rainbow).

You're right. Was just listening to that last night so figured I'd throw it out there. More apt for listening thread.

I've got my eye on some Blue Note reissues, mastered by Kevin Gray (whose work I've enjoyed greatly on CD). Just waiting on my pay day...

You can pick up an '88 original Operation: Mindcrime in mint condition for around $15 or less. Tons of copies floating around and not huge demand. Sounds great, definitely worth having.

Those Music Matters remasters are so damn good. I have really slowed down my record buying because I'm simply running out of storage space, but I've kept my subscription with them active. The latest ones - Larry Young's Unity and Jackie McLean's  Right Now -- just came out last week too.

Any recommendations for classic metal / hard rock? Good recordings please.

Today I snagged Deep Purple - Fireball.  Don't let the stupid cover fool you, this is a damn fine album.  I went for a $6 (VGish) Harvest EMI UK copy but you should be able to find a NM USA WB Green label for less (the pukey WB green labels are generally pretty good - make sure no barcode on the back!).
