- Screaming Blue Murder - Dedicated to Phil Lynott Recorded Live 1993 (1994)
BAD MOON RISING
- Bad Moon Rising (1991)
- Blood (1993)
- Opium For The Masses (1995)
BADLANDS
- Badlands (1989)
- Voodoo Highway (1991)
- Dusk - (These are demos recorded by Badlands in 1992-1993) (Released 1998)
- Tiga band rock mampos yang nama band bermula ngan huruf " B ".
- Tiga2 band dengan gitaris top hits popular John Sykes, Doug Aldrich, dan Jake E Lee.
Mereka yang bantu dan menempah nama dan tulis lagu dan main gitar hebat ngan mempopularkan retis2 lain macam Whitesnake, Thin Lizzy, Dio, Whitesnake (lagi sekali) , Ozzy Osbourne antaranya.
- Ketiga2 band juga menghasilkan album2 studio, rakaman2 demo, dan live ni dalam akhir2 tahun 1980an ke awal 1990an.
Dan jumlah rilisan album setiap band pun Tiga jugak.
- Dan tiga2 band pun tak sepopular mana, mungkin antara sebab kena stimroll ngan Grunge dan
Walau pun mungkin waktu tu Rock tak popular sangat. Tapi tak kesah pasal Rock Never Die. Yang die kita.
Nanti senang aku borak panjang2 lagi la setiap2 band ni, mungkin tunjuk foto2 bungkusan2 dalam nya..
So what a wonderful albums these nine cds above to have in anyone's music collection.
Bands lead by John Sykes, Doug Aldrich and Jake E Lee. Great music all around...
Awesome rock bands, which unfortunately all three bands do not really get famous or long lasting.
Being in the same period as the trend of Grunge does not help.
I will talk cock more next time, and show more photos next time, especially those cute Japanese pressings obi strips.
As usual firstly in my Bahasa Melayu Pasar and then in my Broken English.
I decide to now blog on some album I love and the accompanying live albums/dvds that was recorded on that specific album tour, together in one post.
So lets start with Rainbow, the band I listened to all my life, and I got the opportunity to be there on their first show in 20 years in Loreley Germany 17th June 2016/ One of my greatest experience backpacking to see my favourite bands ever. Its lovingly blogged somewhere here 4 years ago.

Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow Strangers in Us All (CD)
Released - 21st August 1995
(above right)
Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow Black Masquerade (DVD + 2CD)
Recorded Live in Dusseldorf for Rockpalast TV show on 9th October 1995
Album kelapan Rainbow. Suka tak suka, Rainbow ialah Ritchie Blackmore nye band 100%. Bukan macam Deep Purple dimana dia hanya 1/5 sahaja.
Telan je la apa yang best pasal Rainbow, dan kalau tak suka, buat bodoh sua.
Lepas dia gaduh lagi ngan Ian Gillan dan mengamuk dan buat perangai, pasal Ritchie Blackmore ni angin satu badan,
akhirnya dia keluar Deep Purple akhir 1993 dan teringin nak buat album solo tapi akhinya menggunakan moniker Rainbow lagi sekali ngan vokalis Doogie White.
Doogie White ni sebelum tu tahun akhir 1993-1994 memang gossip banyak dia adalah " Runners Up" untuk isi tempat kosong penyanyi Iron Maiden bila Bruce keluar. Posisi tu diisi Blaze Bailey akhirnya.
Jadi yang untung ialah Ritchie Blackmore la.
Dan Doogie White ni kemudiannya jadi vokalis Yngwie Malmsteen Rising Force bila Rainbow ni berpecah lagi sekali pasal Ritchie Blackmore dan isterinya Candice Night nak buat band main lagu muzik medieval dan renaissance dengan band Blackmore's Night. Aku serious rekemen korang semua dengar album pertama mereka Shadow Of The Moon. Kalau korang tak tahu lagi pasal album ni la.
Jadi balik kepada Doogie White ni, kali pertama Yngwie Malmsteen Rising Force tu main di rantau ni dia ialah penyanyi. Memang ribut la penonton, siap ada lagu I Am The Viking lagik. haha. Kenangan.
Lagi satu pasal aku minat giler band Rainbow, jadi aku memang tertarik kat setiap pemuzik dan penyanyi yang pernah bermain untuk Rainbow baik rakaman studio atau main live.
Dan memang banyak la kan, pasal Ritchie Blackmore ni suka tukar2 band dia ikut suka hati dia.
Walau aku tak tahu cammana dia boleh hidup tanpa rasa menyesal ke... Ronnie James Dio dan Cozy Powell dah mati, Ritchie ni degil sangat nak reunion line up Rainbow Rising album sampai dah mati tu dua.
Lagi sekali aku nak cakap Cozy Powell mati pasal berbual kat telepon eh masa driving kat hiway. So hati2 eh... Aku paling minat band line up Rainbow Rising ni la... aku rasa secara band lineup, aku lagi minat Rainbow Rising nye lineup dari apa2 line up Iron Maiden.
Dahsyat kan pengakuan aku? Tapi serious aku minat giler Rainbow. Tak pedulik apa la, janji ada moniker band RAINBOW.
Aku paling tak boleh lupa bila pertama kali Ritchie guna nama band Rainbow selepas 20 tahun untuk main show kat atas bukit Loreley di Jarman,
memang dari satu dunia la peminat, orang Jepun ramai, dan aku nampak satu lelaki angkat sepanduk " IRAN LOVES RITCHIE BLACKMORE !! ".
memang malam tu satu dunia la fans Rainbow datang. Kenangan manis sangat.
OK balik kepada album ni, Candice Night, isteri kepada Ritchie Blackmore dah mula tunjukkan taring dia. Dia sumbang buat lagu dan lirik, dan lagu2 tu la yang sedap2.
ARIEL antaranya. OK lagu Hari Raya kumpulan Malex, ialah lagu Ariel ye. Tukar lirik aje nyanyi Melayu.
Antara lagu2 aku paling paling minat dalam album ni ialah.... Wolf To The Moon, Hunting Humans (Insatiable), ARIEL (Candice backing vocals baik studio atau live), Too Late For Tears (ni memang style Rainbow zaman 80an macam lagu2 Cant Happened Here), Black Masquerade, Hall of The Mountain King ( lagu klasik Jarman ke hapa tu... digubah ikut selera Ritchie Blackmore), Still I'm Sad dirakam lagi sekali dan kali ni ada vokals, tak macam album pertama instrumental.
Jadi serious album ni tak sempurna la tapi aku kasi markah 664/666. Tak sempurna , tapi jiran sebelah aje. So kira bapak best la.
Strangers In Us All, what an album, yes some songs are just not memorable, or makes you want to listen to them again.
It is understandable Ritchie and Candice Night shifted to Medieval Renaissance music after this album with the new band Blackmore's Night, and probably there will never be another Rainbow album, so this makes a nice closure.
When in 2016 Rainbow moniker was used again after 20 years, with an all new line up (as Ritchie always like to make numerous changes), I backpacked alone to Saint Goar and spend 4 days to catch Rainbow in the classical magical Loreley hills..
It was memorable, as a few days before I saw ACDC and of course what else? Iron Maiden. LOL!!
Back to this album,
Easily at least 80% of the album is superb, exciting, thrilling for me.
I have near a unique song like Hunting Human...
Hall of The Mountain King , the Orchestral Music of the 1800s, and adapted well by Ritchie.
Of course Ariel...
I cannot imagine if Jon Lord and the rest of Deep Purple had got their hands on this Ariel song.
Wolf To The Moon, Black Masquerade...
what an album, but like I say, its not perfect but its still has many magical moments.
Anyway the Japanese version of the CD has an extra song, Emotional Crime.
and the packaging includes an extra booklet, with a nice message from Ritchie for his Japanese fans
So its not too late to try to listen to this album.
NEXT THE LIVE ALBUM AND DVD that was recorded to support this studio effort.
Paling best DVD dan 2cd ialah lebih 2 jam.
Puas hati la kan layan persembahan Rainbow...
bassist nya... Greg Smith... wah diri depan showmanship dan backing vocals..
keyboardist nye.. memang la aku minat ngan Rainbow nye keyboardist2.. Toni Carey, Don Airey...
drummer tak yah cakap la kan, sapa pun drummer Rainbow.. Cozy Powell, Bobbi Rodenelli mahupun drummer dalam dvd dan cd live ni...
penyanyi suara sedap...
penyanyi backing isteri Ritchie kan, si Candice Night
dan of course, tak lain tak bukan... Kamera video lama je fokus kat Ritchie Blackmore.. seronok sangat... takde tukar2 video nye kamera cepat2, relak lama je fokus kat Ritchie... dia gentel , dia solo dia apa je la...
Rakaman di Jarman.. biasalah Jarman minat rok kan...
Kelakar nye ada satu part... mereka main lagu Smoke On The Water...
bila penonton kena nyanyi...
suara sendu gitu....
" smoke on the water !!! fire in the sky !! ".
terus vokalis sound " SING FOR RITCHIE BLACKMORE !!!!! "
terus
" SMOKE ON THE WATER!!!!!!!! FIRE IN THE SKY !!!!!!!!! "
hahaha..
semua lagu la hebat... baik lagu2 baru dari album Strangers in Us All, baik lagu2 Rainbow lama, baik lagu2 Deep Purple....
Serious berbual... ni packaging jepun ni dalam dvd dan 2cd aku bagi 666/666. Markah penuh. Puas hati.
So I cannot have enough praise for this Japanese version Black Masquerade of Rainbow live in Dusseldorf for Germany Rock TV show Rockpalast in 1995 to support the release of Strangers in Us All studio album.
Its over 2 hours
The video camera footages is not rushed, it lingers so long on each musician...
Even the keyboardist has lots of footages...
superb performances by everyone, so entertaining, even Candice Night for her Ariel moment.
And of course, if you love Ritchie Blackmore, no complains on this release.
Lots of him, the video cameras stays long on him....
I think at this time he is late 40s , reaching 50. Still on fire !!!!!
New songs from the studio album.
Old Rainbow songs
Old Deep Purple songs.
No complaints. Full Marks. Class release. Both the dvd and the two cd sets.
So thats about it...
maybe next round, I will blog Razors Edge and ACDC Live 2cd. The live album that was recorded when ACDC did the Razors Edge tour.
Another blockbuster studio and live albums combination of the same era.
atas Ariel
bawah Hunting Humans
Greenslaves/ Sad Alcoholica/ The hall of the mountain king
So belated Happy 32nd Birthday to " dot dot dot And Justice For All " album. In 1988 on release and the cassette arrived at where I am, I bought the cassette tape, the tape is long gone, but I still keep the amazing inlet with such long panels.
AS USUAL I WILL TALK COCK FIRST IN BAHASA MELAYU, FOLLOWED BY MY BROKEN ENGLISH.
and then in 2018 I upgraded to these. LOL!!
lambat sikit.. tiap kali depan laptop nak buat blog, last2 surf internet ke lain. haha.
tapi takpe, saje je nak tunjuk betapa minat giler aku kat album Metallica ...And Justice For All ni.. 7hb September 1988 dikeluarkan, sekarang dah 32 tahun. Dulu keluar je aku beli kaset original nya, tu la kaset dah lama dah takde, tapi inlet kaset nya aku masih simpan, tu foto atas tu.. So selepas tahun2 berikut nya aku dengar ke cd tapi aku tak beli, tu jam aku dapat free, ada kawan trade bootlegs tu jam kasi aku percuma versi Jepun, ada lagu extra The Prince.
Lepas tu dua tahun lepas, 2018 keluar boxset besar gedabak sambut 30 tahun gitu ...And Justice For All. Aku kan minat jadi terus aku beli la satu, kira UPGRADE la, sebenarnya aku tak bukak dan pasang apa2 pun, kerana setiap lagu (lebih 100++ lebih lagu dalam boxset ni) baik dari rakaman2 live dari merata tempat zaman tersebut, dan lp2 tu semua dalam kotak diberi PASSWORD KATA KUNCI, jadi boleh di download dari website Metallica untuk pembeli, SENANG HIDUP AKU TAK YAH RIP SATU SATU masuk Walkman,... Serious berbual rasanya aku belum abis dengar. Tapi sungguh menarik live2 mereka zaman2 tersebut, ngan Jason rakaman ramakan live sangat hebat solo2 dan jugak dia nye one man show masa agak anggota Metallica tengah minum air ke lap peluh...
Yang DVD nye tu semua, aku tak minat sangat nak tengok. Mungkin lain kali,
aku tengok belek sekali dua buku tebal hardcover 100+ mukasurat pun tak baca habis pun, tengok tengok gambar dan baca mana yang mustahak aje... cam komen2 engineers dan mixers pasal kenapa takde bunyi bass Jason Newsted. tapi al-maklum ni band ialah milik James Hetfield dan Lars Ulrich, suka hati mereka la nak buat apa dengan band mereka ni. Kita peminat dengar je kalau suka, tak suka tak dengar. Tapi aku tak pedulik apa pun aku minat giler album ... And Justice For All ni. lepas lebih 30 tahun hati aku masih berdebar dengar lagu Harvester of Sorrow. Sedap. Kira semua lagu sedap la, tak payah banyak colok.
Ooo dah terakhir, aku ni ada sikit " OVER GILER " pasal album ni jadi sini aku cuma nak cakap.. nama album ni ada " dot dot dot " tiga titik kat depan tu jangan lupa. Ini ialah sebagian ayat Ikrar Rakyat Amerika dan ia bukan pembuka ayat.. ok enjoy tengok gambo2.
SPEAKING LONDON PULAK...
(current version)
"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
So... me being anal about this album.. really need to emphasis that " dot dot dot " in front of the album title. That is how this album is supposed to be called.
This is surely my favourite Metallica album. Probably second favourite could be HARDWIRED.
Thru the years I have constantly listen and explore the different live versions played, and the 2018 deluxe boxset was anticipated and I got a copy. Thanks to the Metallica downloads, i dont actually open every item inside. I have never viewed the 4 DVDS included.
Yes, besides the 4 DVDS there are 11 cds, full of live recordings and shows through out the late 1980s era, demos and whatever, plus 6 nice looking vinyl records. NICELY PACKAGED of course.
Plus a 100+ pages hardcover of everything to do with the making of this album, the producer, the engineers, the mixers, the artwork artist, and photographers comments and interviews....
So you got detailed and juicy " from the horse's mouth " interviews from those in the studios (mixing engineers) about the Jason Newsted's missing/lack off bass sound.
Plus so much more , Pushead ideas, Ross Halfin, the stories and magazines cuttings and amazing photos from that era, the handwritten notes and whatever.. THIS IS A VERY DETAILED AND WORTH IT BOXSET TO HAVE if you love ... and justice for all.
So this is more photos of me unboxing again this box again to take some photos for this blogs...
As can be seen, the songs collection inside this boxset.... Luckily there is a free download version from Metallica, So I save time ripping everything for my walkman.
kat sini aku ambik kesempatan nak bilang aku langsung tak minat si Rob tu....
tapi pasal aku minat album Hardwired, aku suka giler album ni, so ok la pelan pelan aku dah suka Rob sikit..
As usual first in Broken Malay & then Broken English.
Rakaman Live 2019 ni ialah Naoto Shibata (bassist/kepala/penulis lagu/producer/ketua/Steve Harris kumpulan Anthem bersama band Anthem dan diselit jemputan tiga ahli band2 GALNERYUS dan CONCERTO MOON memainkan lagu2 rock barat yang beliau minat dan mungkin mempengaruhi nya zaman dulu kala.
Macam biasa, memang cekik darah dan ikat perut kalau nak tahu berita2 perihal band2 rok Jepun dan kemudian mendapatkan rilisan2 mereka. Tapi... memang seronok giler dan berbaloi bila dapat memilikinya walau pun selalu tertinggal bas.
Jadi macam aku minat giler band Anthem ni untuk aku selepas reformasi semula tahun 2000 dan dengan bertukar2 anggota sekalipun, kualiti mereka semakin hebat.
Sangat seronok terutama dengar Yukio Morikawa nyanyi live lagu2 Inggeris. Sangat bagus Inggeris nya, sebab tu memang percaturan Anthem ambil Morikawa semula dan buang Eizo Sakimoto memang berbaloi kerana penguasaan bahasa Inggeris Morikawa lebih baik. Sebab tu mereka boleh buat album Nucleus bahasa Inggeris 100%, Aku rasa Eizo kalau nyanyi kelaut la Inggerisnya. Tapi apa pun.. aku lagi minat Eizo dari Morikawa ni. Eizo suara metal. Morikawa ni suara lebih rock n roll pada telinga aku.
Aku speku, mungkin satu masa terdekat, lagi sekali pertukaran anggota bertukar ngan Eizo Sakimoto kembali dan Yukio Morikawa keluar semula. Memang nampak pattern kumpulan Anthem akan selang seli guna dua vokalis hebat ni... dan memang walaupun salah satu dah keluar band, tetap akan tampil bersama2 bila buat live show.
Hi Everyone, so happy with any Anthem or Anthem related releases.
So today lets talk about THE MAN project.
as can be identified, the A in mAn is the ANTHEM logo/font.
So that kind of give it away on the cover.
So its Naoto Shibata with his current Anthem Yukio Morikawa, Akio Shimizu and Isamu Tamaru plays the rock songs that I am sure we all are mostly familiar with.
THE SOUNDTRACK MUSIC OF MOST OF US GROWING UP.
So it was recorded live last year.. so with the inlet info here goes the setlist or songs performed and the guest musicians for specific songs.
Though I do get confused cause I heard some 2nd guitars on some songs Akio is playing alone. Anyway... here it goes, together with what I list the original performers are.
12. Doctor Doctor (UFO) - Anthem with Galneryus keyboardist
13 Burn (Deep Purple ) - Anthem with everyone
14. Iron Fist (MOTORHEAD)
15. You've Got Another Thing Coming (Judas Priest) - Anthem with everyone
16. All Night Long (Rainbow) - Anthem with Everyone
-The covers are very close to originals.
-Nice to hear superb vocals from Yukio Morikawa. I believe he has a strong command of English to be able to sing these live. ( And yes... I miss Eizo Sakimoto in Anthem. I hope he comes back soon )
-He is most spot on for Lemmy's Motorhead Iron Fist. LOL!!
-The music is amazing.... the bass, drums and of course Akio Shimizu on every song.
-The keyboards/guitars Tony Carey versus Ritchie Blackmore with Cozy Powell and Jimmy Bain instrumental section of A Light In The Black was so beautifully done here.
-I HAVE ZERO COMPLAINTS.
-My favourite Japanese rock band performing songs I grow up with and loved so much.
I wish there will be a video release too.
I found this on youtube... an upload of Hellion / Electric Eyes
Malaysian premier rock band Wings played an online-streaming concert (pay per view) what with the covid19 situation now. About 13 songs. Interesting ocassion with very smooth audio and video quality, at least for me.
OK Charity Shield separuh masa, jadi aku time nak buat blog.
So tadi berlangsung peristiwa kumpulan WINGS " KITA MERDEKA " LIVE STREAMING 2020.
Harga RM35. Ni bukan kali pertama aku bayar untuk menyaksikan rock band buat persembahan secara online streaming. Sebelum nya berapa minggu lepas untuk Festival 3 hari 3 malam libatkan 30+ band2 Eropah majoritinya untuk gabungan 10 Festival Eropah yang diberi nama METAL ALLIANCE EUROPEAN FESTIVAL dimana rata2 majoriti band2 tersebut buat persembahan khas dari studio atau pentas masing2 di mana band2 ni berada waktu Covid19 ni. Review aku untuk peristiwa itu di sini - http://deaf-angel.blogspot.com/2020/08/reviewulasan-european-metal-festival.html
Mula2 sekali aku nak cakap aku biarkan je berkumandang dari speakers persembahan yang artis2 pembukaan tu Zynakal dan Yonnyboy dan aku terhibur jugak la dengar. Aku tak tengok pun kat laptop persembahan mereka berdua, just dengar je. Terhibur diri aku ni dan akhir persembahan tu pun pada aku mereka nampak humble, dan rendah diri cakap sopan. So aku suka.. So aku cerita sini.. Kalau aku tak berkenan aku tak sebut pun.
So Wings. Lama tak tengok Wings main, rindu la kan kat Awie, Black, Eddie. Dan teringin nak dengar sound dan persembahan Wings guna dua gitaris.
Setlist
1. Negara Ku
2. Puisi Merdeka
3. Kau Bukan Brader
4. Mabuk Tujuh Lautan
5. Crazy Night (Loudness)
6. Dalam Kehadiran Sofea
7. Pengabdian Ku Kekasih
8. Sejati
9. Jerangkung Dalam Almari / Awie baca ikrar sewaktu separuh jalan lagu ni dengan tak silap aku masuk salah satu Megadeth Countdown to Extinction nye riff kot sewaktu bacaan Ikrar tu. Lupa la..
10. Romania
11. Ingatkan Dia (Awie cakap pasal frontliners sebelum lagu ni masuk)
12. Sekeping Kertas Bermaruah
13. Bujang Senang
dah... abis abis gitu.. haha.
sapa yang berada di dewan peristiwa diminta tengok bawah kerusi masing2 ada surprise. Sapa tengok online, abis abis gitu je la..
So? aku tengok ni sambil masih menghadam kegunaan dua gitar untuk live, dengan banyak lagu pun dua dua gitaris solo, dengan arrangement2 baru untuk sebagian lagu baik dari intro, gitar solos dan sebagainya. Jadi mungkin ambil masa aku nak hadam, nak adjust ye tak... Mungkin akhirnya aku akan minat, atau aku kurang minat. Tapi ni semua selera masing2.
Anyway, Wings menggunakan khidmat pemain keyboards yang kuat mix nya untuk Crazy Night dalam banyak banyak lagu haha, dan juga tiga backing vocals, dua kaum Hawa, satu kaum Adam. Cewahhh... HAHA.
Tapi ni pun suasana Covid19, dah cukup dah tiap hari asyik berita tak syok, berita negatif.. so mari kita carik benda2 positif je la... Awie is superb frontman, untuk aku dia boleh bersuara atas pentas dan boleh bercakap/berceloteh walau untuk show ni sangat kurang dia menunjukkan "sense of humour " dia tapi lebih serious malam ni. Mungkin kerana suasana persembahan Merdeka, dan situasi Covid19 dan jugak dia highlight pengorbanan Frontliners.
Kualiti audio dan video, tiada masalah langsung untuk aku. Dari segi bayaran, untuk dapat kualiti audio dan video begini memang berbaloi. At least untuk aku la, di mana aku berada, semua licin aje streaming nye.
So kita pun faham suasana covid19 ni, hiburan2 dan berjimba ialah paling tak penting. Maka termasuk lah keadaan ekonomi band2 kita minat. Dan efek domino nye jatuh kepada band2 ni nye crew dan organisers. Jadi kalau ada kegiatan sihat cam ni, kita kalau boleh sokong, kita sokong la.
Cuma aku nak cakap sikit, tadi lepas show ni abis aku nak masuk balik macam tak boleh. Entah eh... aku ingat boleh ulang tengok streaming ni mungkin 2 atau 3 hari lagi sebelum dipadam. Tapi well......
So tu je kot... aku tahu tak silap aku Oktober 2nd ni, Armored Saint akan buat online streaming main live untuk raikan rilisan album studio terbaru mereka.... harga tiket US$10. dan ooo yeah yang tiga hari tiga malam Alliance Metal Festival ngan 30+ bands main dan boleh tengok ulang ulang tambahan berapa hari harga nya Euro6.66.
So berpatutan jugak la kita sokong, terutama yang kejong tak dapat gi tengok apa2 band live dengan keadaan Covid19 sekarang.
(nak cakap ulasan pun bukan sangat, borak kejap apa dalam kepala hotak aku aje)
Serious berbual, rock melayu ni kadang2 otak aku jam nak buat blog.
Kecualiada show2 aku pergi rock melayu, boleh la aku review2 sikit, upload bootlegs aku rakam, selain tu aku tak tahu apa nak borak dan untuk dapat berita rock rock Melayu ni, aku harapkan sahabat-sahabat yang kongsi info dan borak2 dalam group Wassap aje... kalau tak memang aku tak tahu apa jadi la.
Lagi dah covid19 ni, lagi takde konsert nak gi, haha.
Anyway, baru dapat, biasalah covid19 ni semua pun takpelah lambat asal selamat. Pekerja Pos pun nak kena jaga diri jugak ye tak? So thank you Postal Staff of the World. Nak tunggu lambat sangat physical cd, Port dah hantar dah advance lagunya bentuk digital. haha.
SEARCH AWIE APOLOGIA RAW JAMMING EDITION.
Aku dah beli tiket sebenarnya show Search Awie ni 28hb Mac lepas. Tapi apa nak buat. Takde Rezeki ye. Takpe.. Next time Insya Allah.
4 lagu dalam cd ni, 3 lagu jamming, 1 lagu original source. Semua empat lagu korang pun dah tahu cuma ni version tak pernah dengar la ye. Telinga aku takde masalah untuk menerima tiga lagu versi Jamming tu.
Rock N Roll Pie, Bayangan Baiduri, Pelesit Kota, dan of course last song versi ori Nur Nilam Sari.
Serious berbual tak puas la kan tiga lagu je, mungkin ada part 2? part 3? tapi apa pun aku suka kombinasi Search dan Awie, so aku support la beli ni. Especially ni covid19 kan. Support mana yang boleh.
Aku speku tentu ada lagu2 lain yang dirakam masa jamming yang seelok tiga lagu ni sesuai tuk direlease untuk peminat2 yang berminat nak dengar jamming version. So tu la aku speku kot ada part 2 nanti.
So layan gambar.
ni dari tadi aku rip cd ni jadi MP3 nak masuk walkman aku, bukak casing, alih cd masuk plastik vcd pirate, snap gambo show off, buat blog gini dah nak tiga round dah dengar ni empat lagu.
OK la aku happy untuk mendapatkan cd ni. Serious bila baca " jamming " aku expect worse actually sound nya. So a pleasant surpise actually.
Bukan tilam Toto, Bukan tikam nombor Toto, Bukan tandas jenama Toto, tapi band nama Toto.
Kalau aku tak tahu Iron Maiden, mungkin aku probably pilih ikut Toto.
Kalau aku kena pilih band nombor 2 kegemaran aku belakang Iron Maiden? Kadang aku pilih Rainbow, tapi kadang aku pilih Toto. Susah weiii... Nantilah senang borak lagi..
If I dont know Iron Maiden existed, probably I would have followed Toto.
That explains it all my love for their music. A magical band , irregardless whoever is performing on these studio or live albums.
Minggu lepas secara online streaming (macam pay per view ) gitu.
Bayar harga berpatutan EURO6.66 dapat password untuk tonton festival online ni. Gabungan 10 festival merata Eropah termasuk Bloodstock.
Harga yang sangat munasabah tiga tiga malam, tengok ikut suka kita bila kita free dan penganjur beri tambahan lagi dua hari selepas akhir tayangan perdana setiap band.
Covid19 kan? jadi lebih 30 band, bergabung untuk buat pesembahan 3 hari 3 malam, macam festival tapi kita semua kat rumah la.
Majoriti band rakam khas persembahan dari studio mereka atau pentas tempat mereka berada.
Ada sebahagian tunjuk video2 live mereka pernah main depan penonton sebelum ni.
TAPI...
yang best tengok bands yang rakam khas untuk festival ni dari mana mereka berada. Seronok sungguh.
Ada band pernah tahu, pernah dengar, ada band tak pernah tahu.. Foto2 kat bawah...
Nanti Wings nak buat benda sama kot hujung bulan ni, aku nak cuba dapat menonton jugak nanti kalau ada kesempatan.
Last week, I bought an online ticket priced at Euro 6.66 to be able to access this online streaming festival.
About 30 bands participate for a cyber music festival where you can view online anywhere.
The organisers gave an EXTRA TWO DAYS i believe for you to view all the content starting from broadcast time.
Most bands recorded special performances for this broadcast.
And that is awesome as you watch them play from their studios or stages in places where there are due to COVID19 situation.
I hope more bands do this to appease fans thirst for live music and attending rock concerts until the Covid19 situation is solved.
Here are some bands that I watch their performances online and I love it. I especially love Unleash the Archer.
I think this is a value for money for just Euro6.66
Rotting Christ
Dirty Shirt from Romania. There was so many of them in their performance.
Nice crossover songs, very entertaining. I like it so much.
Kampfar
I really enjoyed viewing this band. Unleash The Archers.
Never heard of them before.
I would like to check out more from them.
Nytt Land. Another Romanian band I think.
Venom Inc has this digital computer background...
Orange Goblins. From UK. I like this band.
Dead Lord from Stockholm Sweden.
They have these huge banner of Iron Maiden inside their studio...
They play classic rock style.
Another band worth checking out.
I think this is a good way for bands and viewers and music fans continue to enjoy live music in a covid19 environment.
At same supporting organisers and the bands themselves by paying some fees to view them.
First in broken English, selepas tu dalam Bahasa Melayu Pasar.
Posting Serious/Serius.
(yes all black LOL!!!)
So I just get to know Martin Birch is dead from friends thru wassap.
My friend is in Johor Malaysia currently, I am in Singapore currently.
that explains the trans-boundary international impact his death on the world.
Long before as a child I learn of Iron Maiden existence, and I do not even know Martin Birch produce them,
I had first fall in love with songs from Rainbow Rising and Sabbath's Heaven and Hell.
So can be concluded,
the music I love, the performers (in whatever musical chair they play turning up in different bands) has Martin Birth's print.
I think it can be concluded easily by an article I read, first time he learnt of a band called Iron Maiden was when Ritchie Blackmore brought him to his home, and play the first LP from Iron Maiden back in 1980 I guess.
So its about that isnt it... the Ritchie Blackmore/Martin Birch musical tree...
I guess his death has the biggest impact on me as a music fan since Ronnie James Dio passing.
Jadi tadi aku baru bukak Wassap , tengok Berteromber wassap cakap Martin Birch mati.
Ala..... terasa ok. Sanubari.
Bayangkan impak kematian beliau, ok beliau mati kat mana? Amerika?
tapi orang kat Johor dah wassap dan aku kat Singapura sekarang ni dah baca.. dan terus buat blog.
BAYANGKAN IMPAK NYE SATU DUNIA UNTUK PEMINAT DAN PENDENGAR MUZIK.
Macam aku cakap atas tu cakap omputeh,
Sebelum aku tahu dan dengar Iron Maiden, aku dah minat Rainbow Rising.
Aku belajar bahasa Inggeris ialah dengan salin lirik lagu Highway Star.
Aku belajar Inggeris ialah dengan kawan aku budak darjah lima tu jam ajar aku sebut lirik lagu Heaven dan Hell.
(sing me a song youre a singer do me a wrong youre a bringer of evil ) gitu.... gitulah aku belajar bahasa inggeris haha.
Impak nye muzik2 lagu2 yang ada curahan kerjaya beliau sangat besar
dalam keseluruhan kehidupan aku...
so....Banyak aku minat dalam hidup aku, selain dari ada acuan Ritchie Blackmore, ialah ada acuan Martin Birch.
Dan aku pernah baca, waktu Iron Maiden tu jam tak berani nak jemput Martin Birch jadi Producer album pertama mereka, kerana mereka rasa mereka kerdil band kecil,
tapi di zaman sama, Ritchie Blackmore dah bawak Martin Birch balik rumah dan pasang LP dari Britain, LP band pertama dari band bernama Iron Maiden.
Macam aku cakap kat atas... impak terbesar aku sebagai peminat music la ni Martin Birch mati, sejak kematian Ronnie James Dio.
A quick short review, actually more to show how the packaging looks like.
Before Black Empire album in 2008, there was Immortal in 2006.
To my ears this album is melodic , as all Anthem albums are after the year 2000 reunion,
but this is definitely a hard hitting album. No exactly slow songs, unless you consider Echoes In The Dark as one. LOL!!
Even the instrumental on this album Insomnia is In Your Face.
Anthem remains still one of my favourite bands, although getting information about them and music by them and collecting their releases is so difficult and BLOODY EXPENSIVE.
But still if there is a will there is a way.
It would be a dream come true to be able to backpack to Japan and follow Anthem on their Japanese Tour.
Most of the time I have no idea what they are singing though.
This studio album is consist of
-Naoto Shibata of course
-Akio Shimizu and I love him as an Anthem guitarist
-Eizo Sakamoto - I still prefer Eizo above Yukio Morikawa as Anthem best vocalist. He makes the band sound Heavy Metal compared to the more Rock N Roll style of Yukio in my opinion.
-Hirotsugu Homma was still drummer for this album, before his accident.
Enjoy the photos... and two linked to youtube.
One this album version of Echoes In The Dark
The other a live in the studio of Immortal Bind....
click all photos to enlarge
This is Immortal Bind played live in the studio..
this is studio version of Echoes In The Dark.
I do encounter postings on the internet about Eizo's English language, but I dont care. I think he is the best for Anthem.
Salam and Greetings.
First in Broken English, and then in Bahasa Melayu Pasar.
I envision if I do live long, what music I will listen to and how?
I guess Maiden will remain a staple, anything Ritchie Blackmore and another will be Mr Big.
I had ripped my Mr Big collection to mp3, installed them to my walkman for listening when walking, on bus, on trains, and occasionally plays them thru speakers at home.
Persiapan hari tua , kalau panjang umur murah rezeki... Termasuk hiburan sihat. HAHA. Muzik apa aku nak dengar bila Jalan kaki, dalam bas, dalam train, atau kat rumah atau mana2 sahaja? Rasanya band Mr Big tentu jadi pilihan aku. Aku dah ripped abis semua dah bawah ni jadi MP3. Dah letak dalam Walkman aku, senang dengar bila2 masa di luar, malah tempat kerja bila waktu malam takde orang lain.. dan di rumah aku bluetooth kan aje ke speakers... Mungkin senang aku akan ulas sekali gus setiap koleksi Mr Big aku ni....

Maybe one day I will summarise my Mr Big collection.
Giler lama aku tak blog, setahun lebih...
Cerita aku backpack gi tengok Iron Maiden kat Estonia/Sweden/Finland pun belum...
Nantilah satu hari nanti...
Aku gi tengok Ross The Boss main kat Melbourne tu hari.. patut nak tengok Kiss, tapi Paul Stanley sakit lak.. nasib ada Ross The Boss..
ada la jugak cerita2 lain.. nanti la eh... Jangan tunggu setahun lagi...
SO FOR POSTERITY REASON
untuk kajian masa depan....ulasan merapu aku type laju giler, aku nak tido kejap.. kejap lagi nak gi kerja..haha
A quick blog untuk Show Dahsyat LEFTHANDED LIVE di SINGAPURA, 7 Mac 2020 dengan show bertajuk Seruan.
Dan Ramli Sarip ada.
So line up is
Nash
Man Kidal
Anak Man Dayak on drums
2nd gitaris is dari Metalasia
Bassist dia aku lupa lak nama
Keyboardist famous tu Rozario
On-stage ada satu backing vocalist lelaki tapi he knows his job, dia takde nak lebih2 nak overshadow ke hapa.
Ada section Nash rest kejap dan Ramli Sarip masuk, actually tak kejap pun... ada la nak 50 minit
Dan show ni lebih 3 JAM!!! tak sangka kan?

so quick points apa aku masih boleh ingat..
- Kenangan Bersamamu dan Tiada Lagi Kidungmu ada foto montage di background pentas foto2 Lefthanded dan especially Arwah Man Dayak and Arwah Samad.
Nash leads everyone dengan bacaan Surah Al-Fatihah.
- Keadilan? ye kot... ends ngan solo Man Kidal termasuk Heaven and Hell dan Isi dan Kulit.
Nash borak banyak... he is top form la pada aku...
Man Kidal pun join borak.. lahir kat Singapore, sekolah Kaki Bukit, Fandi and all that
Ramli kat segmen dia which is simply awesome pasal berganding ngan Man Kidal.. banyak cerita2 menarik terutama pasal cucu nya untuk lagu Satu Tidur Panjang..
oooo SATU TIDUR PANJANG was played. Ni lagu rare ye... Simply superb Ramli segment ngan all the improvisations dan lagu2 dipanjangkan.
Lefthanded ? ok aku tak sangka semua lagu main full, takde medley medley setengah masak.
Maya Persada... what can I say kan?
Lagi sekali aku cakap... TIGA JAM..
Show organisation superb, aku zero complains dan bouquet of roses la untuk Organisers... ok la up jadi satu lori la bunga untuk organisers terbaik
