Ruining family budgets since 2003!

You really should use that as a strap line someplace on the forum.
Always spare a thought for the 'Metal widows' going hungry somewhere tonight for the sake of some sacred wax.

Great work Khnud, and yet again 90% of these new reviews are of stuff that i'm unfamiliar with. :shock:
I take my hat off to you sir.
Liking the sound of that John Crispino & C.A.T. 45. Is the 45 they did for Azra in the same vein? Definitely strong traces of the classic Texas Hard Rock sound of that era, but could just be 'great minds thinking alike'. Any idea whre they hailed from?

Sweet clips! ...except the awful NAKED DRIVER - are you sure this is not a parody? :lol:
There's a few of them I couldn't quite figure out with 100% certainty what was what, so a list would be nice :)

And I made sure all the songs included the titles in the choruses and everything! ;-)

John Crispino & C.A.T.
Dave Wagner Band
Buster Cherrie
Naked Driver
Backward Glance

In that order.

Thank you again, Sir. I think I sent you an email a few weeks ago, perhaps you haven't seen it?

No idea where John Crispino and his bunch of Merry Musicians came from, nor have I heard their Azra 45. They released several novelty pic discs around 1981 or so, but the reviewed one is the only one I've listened to. I need to shape up. :-)

According to 45cat there were only 250 (50 Gold & 200 clear) copies of the Azra single-sided 'pic-disc' 45 made, so don't feel too bad about not having one. Yet.

Thanks to DaN's php magic, there's now a Various Artists-section. And what better way to celebrate this than by adding the ultra rare MIKE CRISWELL BAND / NIGHT FORCE split?

Folks, these are dark times. Once again we have an aggressive imperialistic tyrant in Europe, hell bent on waging war by invading and conquering his neighbours. I know this sets most, if not all of us, in a very bad mood. Remember that you can make a difference. It will make you feel better. Contact your local charity, support Ukraine in this hour of need.

Also, you can enjoy knowing that another 10 items have been added to the North American Heavy Metal 7" Guide. I give you:

ASSASSIN
BISHOP STEEL
CLIQUE
KINGZ
LORD RYÜR
MYSTERY GIRLS
RAMPAGE
START
TROUPE
VOYEUR

I was seriously thinking of more drastic steps, by starting a bounty fund for Putin. But only dead...
Seriously who needs faggots like him and his ministers in our age? He can't be sane and everyone who supports him neither can't...
Some guys do never learn from history. :!:
Sorry for being off topic, but this bothers me since days.

And to go back on topic, don't agree on Kingz, that one is a pearl. 8)

Your decription of the Troupe 45 deserves a hearty round of applause Khnud. You managed to get across the confusing (is 'ear-boggling' a word?) array of influences really well & made me laugh into the bargain. Nice job.
