Here's the original.. Not bad huh?

Vangelis is dead.

 

[jazz from hell]

 

[Travis The Dragon]

I've never heard of Vangelis, but I really dig that song.

Tonight I got to hang out and chat with members of Symphony X with @Detective Beauregard and @MrKnickerbocker.

That was pretty neat.

I asked Russell Allen what his favorite Maiden album is.

His answer was Piece of Mind.

Pretty cool Lampwick!

I was going through my "to-listen" list, and it has three things I've never listened to that I've heard are great:

1. Somewhere Far Beyond
2. Iced Earth's Gettysburg trilogy
3. ABBA

Where should I start?

Believe it or not, ABBA will have the highest highs out of that list.

The Gettysburg trilogy is the best thing Iced Earth ever did imo. Rippers vocals are god level

Among the best yeah, as a trio definitely in my top 10 faves from them. I wouldn’t say Ripper’s vocals are god level but it is one of the best performances he’s put down.

That said, Jer is right.

ABBA is just great all around.

If you've never heard ABBA before you should indeed start with them, if only because of their importance for western popular culture. You don't need anything other than a greatest hits compilation unless you really like what you hear, but I think you should know those.

Also, having just guided a group of really nice Americans, I had to think of how I took @bearfan and his kid to the museum.

There's also Alice Cooper, but I'll leave him for later.

Maybe not the best but pretty divine, yes.
Dante's Inferno or Something Wicked Trilogy are pretty decent too. Musically Gettysburg is better but the voice of Barlow is next level mighty in my opinion. And let's not forget the whole Horror Show!

The Something Wicked Trilogy is ace, no denying it. But the way Ripper delivers the verses on ‘The Devil to Pay’ brings me out in shivers

I like better High Water Mark. The moment when he signs "God forgive me, please forgive me, it's all my fauuuult" is the peak of the trilogy and one of the finest moments in Metal.

Funnily enough I remember that moment well, as many years ago I was being told a series of important things by my then girlfriend, but I wasn’t paying attention as the metalhead in the room next door was listening to the Gettysburg trilogy. It reached the ‘it’s all my faulttt’ bit and I did a fist pump and said ‘Ripper nailed it’ and she shouted and shouted and shouted at me because apparently I cannot prioritise properly.

Oh but you did! And that's why she was upset!
