Yep, Awake and I&W were slow growers for me, but not I&W is cleanly netted as my second favourite album of all-timeFugazi said:
Awake is still awesome and a lot of people prefer it to I&W. Metropolis is my second favourite DT album, just so nice to listen to.On a side note, Rush is awesome! I only have about half their albums, need to get more!!

Thanks for the recommendations guys!, I've been reading up on these albums and I agree that they will be an excellent point to start from.

Images & Words, When Dream And Day Unite and Systematic Chaos are the three DT studio albums I have yet to hear but I will be buying them in the near future. Metropolis just clicked with me instantly as did Train Of Thought, I listened to Awake again yesterday, I'm still working on that one... but I'm getting there. Speaking of Rush! I'm expecting very good things from them.

Plus I downloaded Blaze's Unplugged Bootleg.There are some really nice moments and some not so good ones but it's really worth getting just for that version of Wasted Years which I can't stop listening to.Some interesting chatter in between songs and it sounds like Blaze and the fans had some great time.
The idea of an unplugged tour and album isn't that bad after all.Some songs worked pretty well and with the addition of a few better choices (2AM, Como Estais Amigos, Meant To Be, Surrounded By Sadness and perhaps some other songs that I can't imagine how good would sound unplugged) an unplugged tour would be really interesting.

Keeping an open eye on the Weeping Angels.
Way back in around '89(ish) I purchased a cassette by a band called Uncle Slam. Reason being, they were mostly ex-member of the brilliant Suicidal Tendencies. And the album, Say Uncle (their debut), got good reviews. Now, as with most of my cassette purchases, I have spent many years trying to get hold of the CD version and mostly had some good luck (i.e. I got hold of Xentrix's Shattered Existence around 8 years ago from a Norwegian online record store) but this one has long since alluded me mainly because of one simple fact - it was only ever released on CD in Japan and when one comes up for auction on eBay it tends to go for upwards of £50. Easily.
Every so often, I drop into eBay to see if I can get hold of it but am always put of by the price. In truth, I stopped searching a few years back and was sort of content with my MiniDisc copy directly from cassette - but as the tape is a tiny bit chewed at the beginning of track two, it spoils it a little.
That was until I searched again a few weeks ago. And guess what? It was re-released in CD format in 2009. The intro in the booklet actually argues it was just plain criminal it was never released on CD in the first place and the writer goes on to say it must be baffling to see people actually pay at auction such prices for this little gem - and he was one.
Needless to say, I'm chuffed to bits about this as the album is so bloody good.
