.....
Kembara = M Nasir, A Ali, S Sahlan, Zoul, Rahmat, Md Shah, Shahrom live on stage kat Esplanade Concert Hall Singapura 30/03/2013.
Untuk aku sendiri yang tak follow up sangat berita persiapan show ni cuma beli tiket, ambik leave, dan terus buat bodoh sua sampai hari show, surprise giler la bila tengok original Kembara A Ali dan S Sahlan was on stage for the full 2hr 30mins show.
Kalau Iron Maiden tak main kat sini tahun ni, aku rasa takde pesaingan la untuk "show of the year".
Kalau korang malas nak baca ulasan/review aku, ni setlist Blockbuster lagu2 yang dorang main...
1. Ekspres Rakyat
2. Balada Osman Tikus
3. Khafilah
4. Rupa Tanpa Wajah
5. Sekuntum Bunga Plastik
6. Impian Seorang Nelayan
7. Di Perhentian Puduraya
8. Duit
9. Di Manakah Di Kau
10. Bunga Bakawali
11. Lagu Untuk Seorang Ibu
12. Keroncong Untuk Ana
13. Bas Nombor 13
14. Tarian Hidup
15. Nusantara
16. Kiambang
17. Empat Penjuru
18. Senandung Buruh Kasar
19. Impian Anak Jalanan
20. Hati Emas
21. Perjuangan
encore
22. Kepada Mu Kekasih
23. Gerhana
2 Jam 30 minit. Dahsyat sey show, but at the same time no Malam, no Ada Sepasang Mata etc. The abundance of good songs they have.
ok, ni beberapa benda yang tarik perhatian aku..
- Dorang pakai 3rd guitarist extra tapi Zoul ngan A Ali kongsi lead , solos.
- Ada percussionist extra.
- Two keyboards dan guna grand piano untuk some songs.
- Drummer Shahrom ngan bassist Rahmat was awesome la pada aku, so was Zoul and A Ali. A Ali kalau solo je mesti dapat tepukan gemuruh.
- S Sahlan's voice was superb. So was A Ali and Zoul. Dorang nyanyi lead vocals untuk some of the songs. Bunga Bakawali Zoul nyanyi lead, Puduraya A Ali nyanyi lead, Impian Seorang Nelayan S Sahlan lead singer etc. Lain mostly M Nasir, tak yah cerita la M Nasir ni, dia memang bagus.
- Starting was a video showing S Amin Shahab buat lukisan seni gitu.
- Sound dari 1st song dah best, Esplanade, memang expected la tempat ni kan.
- Banyak kelakar2 la, stage banters dorang, M Nasir yang do most of the talking pun, dorang gurau2 lawak gitu eg Puduraya etc. Audience pun sporting.
- Lepas Bunga Bakawali, a short video showing S Amin Shahab berbual pasal Kembara, then short video dari Polygram nye boss ke hapa ntah, dia cakap dulu dorang memang nak Kembara jadi "Malay Music First Intellectual Band".
- Then there was another short video clip showing some stories and infos dari Zoul, Rahmat, Shahrom, Md Shah.
- Ada beberapa lagu guna accoustic guitars Zoul dan A Ali, dan jugak grand piano - ...Ibu, ....Ana, ....Kekasih. Lain semua karen all the way.
- Ada lagu seret ngan jams dan solos - Hati Emas, Perjuangan, Gerhana..etc
- Some nice audience participations ala Running Free hehe.
- Intros dan background info untuk sebahagian lagu - M Nasir cakap pasal penjara etc ooo not forgetting MAT KOTAI. Dah berzaman aku tak dengar ni word Mat Kotai sey. Ni word lama ni.
- Balanced set list, fast songs slow songs, songs not about love, songs about love.
- Perhentian Puduraya ni memang lagu sedih la kan, also M Nasir cakap lagu Kepada Mu Kekasih ni lagu 'awet muda' pasal dah puluhan tahun tapi orang masih suka.
- Gerhana siap dorang speed-up dan slowdown kat last part, kecoh sey ni band.
- I think the show is full house. The ticket pricing is very very reasonable for a legendary band at a top-notch place.
- There was some banters at the end of the show about another show next year haha.
- What else? Aku rasa mesti keluar dvd la, ni Esplanade shows ni dorang siap camera sana sini, jadi aku rasa Kembara Ekpres Rakyat reunion ni mesti ada dvd ikut style Sweet Charity 40 Years dan Lovehunters nye final concert. Aku harap ni show release official triple cd of the whole performance.
Dulu M Nasir pernah keluar triple vcd kan yang Gembala nye show tu. Tu memang packaging best giler siap setiap packaging dia sign, jarang music melayu keluar ni triple triple disc versions.
- Nanti la kalau aku senang dan takde apa terpeleot, aku upload bootleg ni show kalau sapa berminat, aku kumpul untuk koleksi peribadi aku buat kenangan je dan dengar balik kadang2.
That is all. Cehhhh.

Epok-Epok Sadin ("Sardine Currpuff")
Ada macam2 epok-epok,
Kentang, Sardin, Keledek, Sayur, etc... Epok2 sayur ni kira makin rare..
Tapi kan, aku ada pelik sikit, kalau aku tengok kat gerai, atau kat kedai, epok-epok tu cantikkk je, elok je...,
aku tak beli.
Tapi kalo epok-epok tu macam senget2, tak cantik, kadang2 retak2 boleh nampak isi dalam,
kira senang cakap epok-epok tu bentuk TERPELEOT..
hah aku akan beli, dan selalu nya tu la epok2 yang gerek.
Baik dia punya kulit, dan isi dia.
Ni, kat pasar malam aku beli... Epok-Epok Sardine. Sedap sey.
This is called Epok-epok among the malay community in Singapore and southern part of Peninsular Malaysia like Johor. It can have different fillings like potatoes or sardines or beansprouts etc.
Elsewhere, I guess most of the Malay community called it Karipap, which is literally a direct translation of Currypuff.
It does provide a sense of weirdness and some laughter when you're in Kuala Lumpur or other parts of Malaysia and you asked for Epok-epok and the seller looks at you weird like you speak "alien" language.

High On Fire - De Vermis Mysteriis
Dulu bila aku tengok ni band naik pentas aku tak tahu apa nak jangka, aku tak pernah dengar lagu dorang, tak tahu pun dorang berapa anggota, kira memang tak tahu apa2 la,
sekali tu tengok, ok, 3 anggota, gitaris jugak tukang nyanyi.
Hah kau! bila dorang mula main je ternaik bulu kening aku,
Hebat dan mengasyikkan, aku yang cuma nak tengok2 je dorang main sambil tunggu giliran band2 yang aku memang tunggukan, terus teruja dan fokus. Kecoh giler gitaris/penyanyi dia. Pa Ka Liao, dah la berlengeng tak pakai baju.
Apapun, ni band kira ada macam campur perasa Slayer + Motorhead, bila laju memang ribut,tapi kadang2 bila dorang perlahankan muzik dorang, sedap berdengung je gitu.
.
.
.
This is a quite recent and latest release by High On Fire.
- De Vermis Mysterius.
Seems its translated as Mystery of the Worm. This is a concept album.
Related to works by the Physcho writer, HP Lovecraft works-(Call of) Chtulu etc.
High On Fire, especially Matt Pike (guitarist/vocalist) is an eye opener for me, as I have not heard of them until I see them play live. It was very impressive and enjoyable.
Fast, loud, yet melodic.
I wonder how they are not that bigger and more famous.
So I was taken by surprise among all the beautiful organised ruckus of the first few songs, track no 5 SAMSARA slows down to what reminds me of Led Zeppelin's No Quarter. Moody.
Anyway, I cant get the melody line of Kings Of Days out of my mind. It leaves a lump in my throat, this song.. All 7 minutes of it...
Anyway, I dont know much, but I think High On Fire could be the best metal band from America right now and I hope to see them play again, and this this time I want to be nearer to the stage haha.

Wings at Istana Budaya KL 2013
ku kejar engkau disana, ku lambai wajah serupa..
selalu aku terbayang..., selalu aku terkenang..
biarpun telah berlalu, wajah usia berbeza...
namun tak pernah dihati..., sesaat aku terlupa..
CHEWAHH!!! Masih ingat lirik sey...
Aku sms Zan, (pasal rumours 80% setlist lagu jarang main atau mungkin tak pernah main,) so, aku bilang Zan, kalau Wings bawak lagu Suara Kita ni, aku nangis kot haha. Seriously korang, Bazooka Penaka nye cd is stupendous dari mula lagu pertama sampai kalo dapat melahap burger alangkah indahnya last song...
ok untuk yang tak tahu, pasal aku pun baru tahu lepas tengok blog Zan, Wings hujung bulan April depan akan main empat malam kat Istana Budaya ngan konsep rockestra rasanya.
Yang menarik perhatian aku ialah
- aku tak pernah pegi tempat ni pun, tapi aku dah cek, ada LRT Titiwangsa tapi nak kena menapak jugak la kot 20minit gitu alahai.
- Tempat gini ada dresscode, tapi aku dah cek, anything with collar is ok, and only torn jeans is out, ok fine, not a big issue.
- aku bimbang kalau malam tu ada ramai2 Superfriends join in onstage, with all due respect, aku datang nak tengok Wings, bukan nak tengok orang lain..., tapi errrrr aku dah tercek, I believe its going to be mostly purely Wings with orchestra backing, I hope so.
- Paling problem aku dah cek, siak empat2 show dates aku kena kerja... kena ambik cuti la ni macam, tapi semangat Wings nye full show nye pasal dan 1st untuk 2013, tiket aku dah gi beli, I love Wings, always have been since their first cassette tape Bellengus.. came out in the shops even before the radio stations start to play their songs...I guess I always will.
But first, KEMBARA reunion this Saturday at the Esplanade... Its going to be a freaking king of awesomeness show.
ada yang panggil Ringgit, ada yang panggil Dolar, ada yang panggil Baht, ada yang panggil Rupiah, ini semua duit...buat orang belit...
DUIT! DUIT!!! dimana kau duit??
DUIT!! DUIT!!!
ooo mesti ribut audience backing vocals DUIT DUIT! tu hahaha.

hari air sedunia (World's Water Day)
"Friends, Romans, countrymen, Lend Me Your Ears!"
(-Shakespeare's Julius Caesar)
22nd March is World's Water Day.
It dont matter if you dont even know such a day exist, as long as you respect that Water is Precious and you use clean water wisely and dont allow any unnecessary wastage, thats wonderful.
Bagi kita orang melayu yang rata2 orang Islam, tentu tahu betapa pentingnye air bersih dan betapa kita kena berjimat, dan tak boleh membazir.
- Betapa banyak negara takde air, dan jangan heran kalau nanti seluruh dunia perang pasal rebut air bersih/minuman.
- betapa tiap2 hari ramai orang mati kat berapa tempat pasal dahaga, atau takde air bersih untuk perubatan penyakit.
bahkan negara2 yang penduduknya dabik dada kerana negara mereka penuh sungai2 mengalir dan hujan melimpah pun ada masalah air yang kadang2 kronik.
Aku tetap rasa, satu hari nanti bila teknologi murah, semua kita seluruh dunia akan minum air dari air- kitar semula, dan air dari laut yang dah disuling.
Dan aku harap sesetengah dorang yang dulu ejek sesetengah masyarakat minum air kencing, minum air longkang , dah sedar dah, dorang sebenarnya secara tak langsung mengejek pendapat alim ulamak yang dah cakap air-baru (newater) tu suci dan mensucikan.

Hidayah - Doa Seorang Insan(Prayer of a Person) LP 1979.youtubeded
Sambungan kumpulan nasyid Hidayah nye LP upyoutubeded. Ni yang album ada lagu Kesedaraan yang aku rasa korang semua tahu la pernah dengarnye.
As usual I upload to youtube another album of theirs before all these songs dissappear just like that.
There are Hidayah songs available in the market officially, but not complete ones.
So before these songs become a real dead one, lets keep it a real live one.
Hidayah is one of three "nasyid" (malay-language songs with religious and wholesome positive values themes) that I really like. The other two are Al-Mizan and Al-Jawaher.
They are sort of the BIG THREE of Nasyid in my personal opinion.
They were huge back in the late 1970s and early 80s not only in Singapore but also in Malaysia.
Up to now, their songs are still fondly remembered and played and I am not surprised if they keep winning new fans all the time.
So you have some fantastic slow and some quite fast songs, but all catchy and meaningful and makes you reflect a bit on your own life.
So you have songs
- encourgaging good deeds like patience etc. Songs praising Allah, the Prophets.
- Songs encouraging good moral activities, wholesome living, etc etc.
- Repent, dont be evil, be good...
- dont forget to pray,
- be careful in life, choosing friends, the beautiful, the poisonous, inside and outside...
- dont be stingy, dont be selfish, be helpful, help the poor and less fortunate,
- be sincere always,
those type of thingys...
The lyrics are written so beautifully.
There is one superb song...track no 7
It has this huge dramatic music ala Led Zeppelin's Kashmir just to give you an idea...
and the lyrics goes -
When the coffin is being carried,
leaving behind all the love ones,
because of God's calling
All the relatives and friends are helping with the funeral, helping for the very last time
And the white shroud covering the dead body is prepared in position
There is no treasure that is brought along
Only deeds is with the body ( the good and bad deeds)
After the body is buried and earth poured covering the grave
A pair of tombstone is placed.
And with sincerity Talkin ( these is sort of funeral prayer recital at the grave) is said.
(or did she say Tahlil? which is also a special prayer recital for the dead).
There is no treasure that is brought along
Only deeds ...
for Unholy me... these songs are scary.. because I am never prepared for LIVE AFTER DEATH.
Hidayah is the group who makes famous the song " DO YOUR DAILY PRAYERS, BEFORE PEOPLE GIVE YOU A FUNERAL PRAYER ".
ouchhh, suddenly I feel so hot...
Hopefully maybe one day I be an honest man, up to now I'm doing the best I can....
p.s track no 10, tenangkan fikiran ( make the mind be at peace ) has this awesome keyboards....
oooo should have been on Rainbow Rising...

Clive Burr & penyakit Multiple Sclerosis
Clive Burr dah mati. Mati dalam tidur.
Aku sedih lak gitu bila aku tahu dia mati, aku dalam tren. Termenung kejap.
Aku suka kat dekni.. perjalanan hidup dia cam sedih gitu...
Handsome giler, pandai main drum, pernah jadi drummer greatest band in the world ever, then nasib makin tak menyebelahi dia..
gitu la hidup...
tapi dia pun, kuat minum dan takde disiplin, tu la kena buang kerja ngan Maiden dulu
Penyakit Multiple Sclerosis ni boleh kena kat sapa2 pun.
Orang biasa pun kena...sampai kat sapa2 pun la...
Bintang bolasepak yang kita sanjung, pemain water-polo yang paling fit dan sihat pun, dan jugak drummer untuk Iron Maiden tiga album pertama.
Multiple Sclerosis ni, benda paling mudah sikat rambut, semalam kita boleh sikat rambut sendiri, hari ni tak boleh dah, pasal dah tak boleh grip sikat tu...dah makin tak kuat.
Multiple Sclerosis ni, benda paling mudah kutip duit siling yang jatuh bertabur kat lantai, semalam boleh, tiba2 hari ni tak boleh..
Pelan2 gitu....
Clive Burr handsome, paling handsome giler la.... Drummer paling handsome nombor 2 dalam sejarah bagi aku... pasal.... Animal ialah paling handsome haha. Korang tak tahu sapa Animal? Hah...drummer Muppet Show.
Pernah aku pun macam kecewa, bila ada report cakap dia jadi bawak teksi, cam what a waste kan, tapi rata2, kumpulan Iron Maiden sayang dia kot, sampai buat Brixton shows tiga malam untuk kutip duit untuk dia renovate rumah , jadi dia boleh gerak ngan lebih mudah, dan ada duit belanja dan bayar hutang2 dia. Renovate rumah pasal dia kan dah kena berkerusi roda...
Tu la pada aku antara paling best aku minat kumpulan ni...tak lupa kawan. Satu yang aku boleh belajar haha.
Clive Burr pada aku drummer paling terbaik dalam sejarah Iron Maiden,
Nicko McBrain paling maintain, disipilin,boleh harap untuk Maiden... tapi Clive Burr unik,
Ni kalo jadi Maiden England 2013dan kalau Iron Maiden nanti man kat rantau ni.
bila dorang start main Run To The Hills...., bila dorang start main Prisoner...,
atau bila dengar balik first three albums Maiden....
dia takkan dilupa la peminat Maiden.
k, lepas ni dengar Gangland. Ada satu part kat tengah tu aku paling suka...
Ni lagu Clive Burr jugak..tak tahu kat tengah part " once you were glad to be free for a while " tu dia punye ciptaan ke Steve Harris.
ooo
Clive Burr mati sama hari ngan birthday Steve Harris....

The Queens - Bersabarlah Kalau Bercinta (1980) LP - diyoutubedkan
Macam post2 sebelum ni, aku lagi sekali buat disclaimer,
kalau lagu2 gini, album2 cam gini ada jual kat kedai, tentu tak jadi hal, tapi rasanya tak, jadi sebelum lagu2 gini hilang gitu2 je ditelan masa, baik lagu2 ni diyoutubedkan.
So ni LP, piring hitam, vinyl, album Bersabarlah Kalau Bercinta dari kumpulan The Queens dari Singapura. Yasmin dan Farah, aiseybedah...
Ni dari tahun 1980.
Not to be confused with Queen, I believe The Queens got their name from the road name where they reside then back in the late 70s/early 80s period.
The Queens duo had one of the most sweet as saccharin voices and with some great songs, I think they are still remembered fondly by Malay-language music fans not only in Singapore but in Malaysia and everywhere I guess.
So this LP has 10 songs...released in 1980 and mostly are songs about growing up, falling in love and all the dreamy fantasy girly stuffs.
You have all the innocent thingys, especially for those growing up during that time...
- falling in love while waiting for the bus to go to work at the bus stand/stop.
- talking in the dark using the house residential phone with a potential 'mambang' haha.
but all relate in honest , goodness , uncorrupted pure way that exist in the 80s and maybe up to the 90s.
The world as we know now, is completely different.
Jadi sepuluh lagu kat album ni ialah
- Tak Mengapa ( lagu 60an A Rahman Hassan)
- Bersabarlah Kalau Bercinta
- Perasaanku (yang terpendam)
- Aku Jangan Digoda
- Peracun Hati
- Seribu Tahun Kan Kunanti
- Semuga Aku Berjaya
- Ingin Ku Kenalmu
- Cemburu
- Gadis Malang (Bahgia tetap ada)
spelling melayu zaman dulu2
Perasaanku, Semuga Aku Berjaya..., Peracun Hati, etc etc slow je tapi best, dan kalau rancak pun macam2 ada cam Aku Jangan Digoda etc,
Some of the songs ni copypright control lagu dia liriks je tukar.
I mean its a breathe of fresh air nak-nak bila aku tengah fikir bila baca news kat Soundwave tahun ni, Slayer tanpa Dave Lombardo, walau zaman dulu dah jadi, tapi mesti cam sangat terasa kelainan la gitu kan.
Dah la takde Jeff Hanimenn. Dan bila la si mamat Jeff ni balik band? dia nye sakit rabak woo kena gigit spider, sampai nak kena potong tangan semua kat spital. Tapi yang mamat Exodus peganti dia tu alrite la tapi tak sama. Slayer is like Beatles, must be that same Fab 4. Cam aku cakap aku terngangah mulut tengok dorang changeover stage set Dimmu Borgir ngan Slayer, bila dorang tolak Dave Lombardo nye drum set letak kat tengah2 pentas, makdatok, dah awesome giler, belum start main, baru je tolak drum set in position set...Aku was like, "oooo Dave Lombardoooooo",
ok ok out of topic..haha
tapi tu la aku cakap, this is a Breathe Of Fresh Air listening to these songs after listening to other types of music.
Lyrics, senikata, liriks The Queens kat album ni...
Sebahagian je la...
Perasaanku ( yang terpendam)
Diri bagaikan terlena, mendengar
Bisik suaramu
Ketika berbual oh di telefon di
Kala malam sunyi sepi
Engkau pandai bercerita
Membuat aku tergoda
Tapi aku malu, untuk curahkan
Hasratku yang lama terpendam
Kau bagai cahaya
Yang menyuluh hidupku
Ku rasa bahgia
Jika kau menjadi kasihku
Entah bilakah masanya
Dapatku curah rahsia
Perasan hati yang ku pendamkan
Cinta untukmu oh sayang
Aku Jangan Digoda
Aku janganlah engkau goda
Tak mahu diriku terpedaya
Biar aku bebas
Tiada Cinta
Bukan ku takut pada cinta
Tetapi bagiku belum masa
Aku masih muda
Ingin hidup gembira
Jika aku mula jatuh cinta
Tentu jiwa tidak bebas
Andai kata putus kasih
Merana diri
Walau kawanku sungguh ramai
Asalkan namaku tak tercemar
Jangan engkau marah
Aku jangan digoda
Semuga Aku BerjayaSusah Payah ayah dan Ibu
Menyuruh aku bersekolah
Agar jadi orang berguna
Untuk bangsa dan negara
Dengan semangat suci
Belajar tiap hari
Demi memburu cita
Hari muka
Doa restu ayah dan ibu
tunjuk ajar guru-guru
Dorongan teman-teman semua
semuga aku berjaya
Dalam pelajaran

album yang best giler, tapi jugak kasi aku rasa cam panas nak terbakar2 gitu bila dengar hehehe.
kumpulan HIDAYAH - DOA SEORANG INSAN full album.
kalau lagu2 gini, album2 cam gini ada jual kat kedai, tentu tak jadi hal, tapi rasanya tak, jadi sebelum lagu2 gini hilang gitu2 je ditelan masa, baik lagu2 ni diyoutubedkan.
So ni LP, piring hitam, vinyl, album Bersabarlah Kalau Bercinta dari kumpulan The Queens dari Singapura. Yasmin dan Farah, aiseybedah...
Ni dari tahun 1980.
Not to be confused with Queen, I believe The Queens got their name from the road name where they reside then back in the late 70s/early 80s period.
The Queens duo had one of the most sweet as saccharin voices and with some great songs, I think they are still remembered fondly by Malay-language music fans not only in Singapore but in Malaysia and everywhere I guess.
So this LP has 10 songs...released in 1980 and mostly are songs about growing up, falling in love and all the dreamy fantasy girly stuffs.
You have all the innocent thingys, especially for those growing up during that time...
- falling in love while waiting for the bus to go to work at the bus stand/stop.
- talking in the dark using the house residential phone with a potential 'mambang' haha.
but all relate in honest , goodness , uncorrupted pure way that exist in the 80s and maybe up to the 90s.
The world as we know now, is completely different.
Jadi sepuluh lagu kat album ni ialah
- Tak Mengapa ( lagu 60an A Rahman Hassan)
- Bersabarlah Kalau Bercinta
- Perasaanku (yang terpendam)
- Aku Jangan Digoda
- Peracun Hati
- Seribu Tahun Kan Kunanti
- Semuga Aku Berjaya
- Ingin Ku Kenalmu
- Cemburu
- Gadis Malang (Bahgia tetap ada)
spelling melayu zaman dulu2
Perasaanku, Semuga Aku Berjaya..., Peracun Hati, etc etc slow je tapi best, dan kalau rancak pun macam2 ada cam Aku Jangan Digoda etc,
Some of the songs ni copypright control lagu dia liriks je tukar.
I mean its a breathe of fresh air nak-nak bila aku tengah fikir bila baca news kat Soundwave tahun ni, Slayer tanpa Dave Lombardo, walau zaman dulu dah jadi, tapi mesti cam sangat terasa kelainan la gitu kan.
Dah la takde Jeff Hanimenn. Dan bila la si mamat Jeff ni balik band? dia nye sakit rabak woo kena gigit spider, sampai nak kena potong tangan semua kat spital. Tapi yang mamat Exodus peganti dia tu alrite la tapi tak sama. Slayer is like Beatles, must be that same Fab 4. Cam aku cakap aku terngangah mulut tengok dorang changeover stage set Dimmu Borgir ngan Slayer, bila dorang tolak Dave Lombardo nye drum set letak kat tengah2 pentas, makdatok, dah awesome giler, belum start main, baru je tolak drum set in position set...Aku was like, "oooo Dave Lombardoooooo",
ok ok out of topic..haha
tapi tu la aku cakap, this is a Breathe Of Fresh Air listening to these songs after listening to other types of music.
Lyrics, senikata, liriks The Queens kat album ni...
Sebahagian je la...
Perasaanku ( yang terpendam)
Diri bagaikan terlena, mendengar
Bisik suaramu
Ketika berbual oh di telefon di
Kala malam sunyi sepi
Engkau pandai bercerita
Membuat aku tergoda
Tapi aku malu, untuk curahkan
Hasratku yang lama terpendam
Kau bagai cahaya
Yang menyuluh hidupku
Ku rasa bahgia
Jika kau menjadi kasihku
Entah bilakah masanya
Dapatku curah rahsia
Perasan hati yang ku pendamkan
Cinta untukmu oh sayang
Aku Jangan Digoda
Aku janganlah engkau goda
Tak mahu diriku terpedaya
Biar aku bebas
Tiada Cinta
Bukan ku takut pada cinta
Tetapi bagiku belum masa
Aku masih muda
Ingin hidup gembira
Jika aku mula jatuh cinta
Tentu jiwa tidak bebas
Andai kata putus kasih
Merana diri
Walau kawanku sungguh ramai
Asalkan namaku tak tercemar
Jangan engkau marah
Aku jangan digoda
Semuga Aku BerjayaSusah Payah ayah dan Ibu

cute Russian fake PIECE OF MIND mini-lp based on the Japanese vinyl pressing.
Note - out of topic - Sadness..I am only just aware that Paul Bearer is really dead. I mean the person who plays his character is dead. Love it that Ultimate Warrior, Mankind has sent out some nice words..
Now waiting for what The UN-DER-TAKER!!! and Kane have to say.
Early 90s, the best days of entertainment wrestling... and I so miss those days..
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
For those curious to know how the packaging of the 2012/2013 picture disc LP release of the first 8 Maiden albums looks like,
there are two blogs whose owners are kind enough to share detailed photos of the releases from the vinyls to the gatefolds.

Now, as this is sort of marketed as remasterings from original master tapes or something, I am hoping they will come out with a cd version too from the same masters.
The remastered series cds from the mid 90s is a bit embarassing and horrid if you're a Maiden fan who expect basic quality control from the Maiden camp, the screw up for Powerslave on the Powerslave remastered cd was and is still making me feel nauseous. Yes, the loudness war is won, but I still cannot accept it. I still go for cd pressings from earlier ones. The only thing excellent that came out of it was the 25,000 pieces limited copy Eddie's Head or skull boxset, which yep, I still have it intact haha.
ok got that out of the way....
now Lets talk of another issue of these beautifully crafted bootlegged pirated fakes at its most supreme awesomeness.
Piece Of Mind - Iron Maiden album no IV. The first Maiden album I ever heard.
It was a pirated cassette tape, and literally it changed my life as a frog / boy in a well.
Piece Of Mind became an inspiration that never cease till now.
- Learning the English language because I want to know what is being sung about from the pirated lyric sheets and expanding my limited vocabulary, and as I grow up reading literature, appreciate history/legends from cavemen to Musashi (the Japanese swordsman during the Samurai warriors era who first kill at 13, and not only the world war II battleships famous pair of Musashi & Yamato), Greek mythology, respecting and getting to know different religions and beliefs, hymns, I learnt then backmasking can be plain fun and put even more doubts to those who are eager to label anything that dont suit them satanic, and of course the book Dune, and that the author of Dune - Frank Herbert is an asshole (Bruce words as heard on the bootlegs during that tour ) for not approving Maiden's request to titled To Tame A Land as Dune from which the song is based on, and also, the lobotomy of Eddie by Derek Riggs happens during this period.
.
.
A full review of what I think of the Piece of Mind album is not proper in this blog post so let us just treasure the packaging of this unauthorised release. .
.
- As usual, a similar Japanese obi strip accompanies this release of a lobotomised Eddie in a padded room, straight-jacketed, and chained and secured. Dereks Rigg book did have another artwork during that time quite similar to this scene. I think I have shared it before, but I will do so again...here.
- Open up the digipak spread and you have the dinner set up photo and the lyric sheets and credits.
- On the left flap of the digipak is kept a poster which is similar to the original poster that comes with the original Japanese pressing of POM vinyls.
- Also on the left flap is a write up of Maiden during that time by Masa-Ito and on the reverse is the lyrics of POM in Japanese.
- On the right hand flap of the digipak is kept the cd, the artwork on the cd itself is copied from the remastered series cds from late 90s, and its kept in a jacket with more Japanese writings from the POM inlets and again similar lyrics in Japanese.
- The back cover is similar to the vinyls too.
Below is an alternative artwork that appears in the Derek Rigg's book for those who had missed on it.
Now waiting for what The UN-DER-TAKER!!! and Kane have to say.

a Kenyan Trash Picker (pengutip sampah) & Sabah
Like many others I am concerned about whats happening in Sabah. Its a very serious matter. No joke ok.
-> As a small kid, I get to know about Sabah thru their football team in Piala Malaysia, and I still remember the names James Wong and Hassan Sani.
-> Music wise, they got Atomic Power (thats the name right?), yep I grow up on RTM broadcasts haha.
-> and of course thru out my life, I do make friends with people from there where I work at different places before.
I hope all will be back to normal very very soon.
.
.
something else now,
ok these are from Singapore's Straits Times which features the WORLD PRESS PHOTOS WINNERS FOR 2012.
.
.
.
I'm sure many of you are familiar with these photos....
- the winner is the procession going for the funeral of the two little boys age 2 and 3 and their father who were killed when their house in Gaza were destroyed by an Israeli missile strike and their mom is in ICU.
- that girl in the other photo is aged 15, a potrait of her, a crack user in a crack slum in Brazil.
And fuck those who champions or defend or close one eye on drug abuse.. I am very particular about this. Because it really really destroy lifes and its like a domino effect with no end and it only gets worse socially...
(One thing I cannot stand in life is alcoholics who cannot control themselves when intoxicated and they just transformed to something else,
it gets double worse for those when under the influence of drugs...)
But the photo I like, among those other deprssing and eye-opening ones is this one...A rubbish picker in Nairobi Kenya, reading a book she found in the rubbish dump.
And that... is all its about.
READ!!! IQRAK.!! Baca lah!!!!

Blackmore's Night- Shadow of The Moon & Berlin Night 17/12/1997 boots
My daily travels to and from work is more enjoyable when listening to my favourite albums rip to my mp3 player, and its a habit of mine to include a live bootleg of a recording made during shows related to that studio album. So you can hear how the songs progress and evolve from studio to playing live in a short space of time.
One cd I can say I really really like is Blackmore's Night first ever album called Shadow Of The Moon. I first bought it when it came out in about 1997, and 16 years later its still wonderful to my ears. The cd booklet is worn-off, and I think I already lost the back cover of the cd. Periodically, I still listen to this cd more then many others.
Lets talk the negatives out of the way...
Ritchie Blackmore's full devotion to Blackmore's Night, also his girlfriend/wife Candice Night and medival folk, RENAISSANCE music
- means we miss out on any Rainbow reunions involving him and it will never be with Cozy Powell and Ronnie James Dio now gone.
- also even though Deep Purple, David Coverdale, Glenn Hughes and a few Rainbow ex-members are still active, I doubt the man in black wants to play with them again. Although I think he and Ian Gillan still got big problems. Its a real tragic from my point of view.
OK now having that out of the way, I want to say if you had never listen to this album, but you love or had enjoyed Ritchie Blackmore works or Rainbow with Dio castles,dragons and dungeons era or Robin Hood's Renaissance music, romantic dreamy Scarborough Fair music etc, then this album will be perfect from start to finish.
I have no problem listening to every track,
so my favourite songs are Shadow Of the Moon, The Clock Ticks On, Be Mine Tonight, Play Minstrel Play, Ocean Gypsy, Magical World, Writting On The Wall, Renaissance Faire, No Second Chance, Spirit Of The Sea, Greensleeves, Wish You Were Here
and the three Ritchie Blackmore instrumentals Minstrel Hall, Memmingen and Mond Tanz.
Basically every song from the cd.
Some of the above are traditional songs, the popular Greensleeves, that Ritchie Blackmore plays live during the Rainbow period,
and even a bit of Tchaikovsky.
ok now moving on to a live bootleg of that era...
This one is called Berlin Night recorded December 17, 1997 at Passionskirche Berlin, with additional few songs from Dec 11 Mainz and Dec 16 Koln.
Some highlights,
- the intro itself which include some Deep Purple hints
- Shadow Of the Moon live has an extra intro verse.
- Under The Violet Moon was played from the yet released 2nd album
- St Teresa...that Joan Osborne song was played, and it fits in perfectly.
- Candice Night talks abit about Rainbow, ""run by a powerful EVIL WIZARD"" and they start to play Temple Of The King and listening to this reminds me how I really love Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow.
Other Rainbow songs played was 16th Century Greensleeves, Ariel, Still I'm Sad, Man On The Silver Mountain, a bit of Difficult To Cure and Deep Purple's Black Night. The last from another night.
- Plus some great songs from the Shadow Of The Moon, though I wish they should have played more from this album.
