Savatage The Ultimate Boxset in photos (first 3 albums...) - LIMITED EDITION NO. 1412

Selamat berpuasa semua,

dari rock Jerman ke rock Melayu ke Rock Omputeh ke Rock Jepun, dan kini...
ke Rock Amerika ngan kumpulan rock yang aku rasalah sapa yang dengar ni band, aku rasa cuma akan cakap yang baik2 je la..iaitu SAVATAGE. 
Aku tak pernah lagi jumpa sapa2 baik orang melayu atau baca kat tenet orang putih cakap - "Savatage Macam S^#*!!!" atau ayat seumpama begitu lagi. 

Aku tak rasa pasal kesian punye pasal ngan ni band yang buat aku tak pernah baca apa2 tak seronok pasal ni band tapi pasal dorang memang gerek walau Fight For The Rock nye album ada sikit "geng lipat kain" tapi lagu tetap gerek nak mampos , ngan Criss Oliva mati eksiden pasal orang lain mabuk, ngan bini dia bunuh diri pasal kesedihan Criss Oliva mati kan?? , ngan band ni buat album lagu semua gerek tapi takde sambutan dari peminat muzik rock secara meluas.

Apa pun mereka reunion ni untuk Wacken 2015. Sebagai Headliners ok. Wahh mesti dahsyat ye. Tentu seronok....

Mesti nyanyi2 macam konsert Bon Jovi la bila lagu Summers Rain. HAHAHAHA.

Korang tak gi ke konsert Bon Jovi? Gerek... Phil X gerek.. nak tengok Richie Sambora pergilah konsert solo dia, aku tak rasa dia main ngan Bon Jovi lagi.. Aku nak dia pun rejoin tapi sampai sekarang takde berita pun dorang nak reconcile.

Bon Jovi tinggal tiga orang je dah sekarang...
Tapi macam siot jugak ye, harga tiket kat KL melampau la.. MELAMPAU!!!!!!

Apasal tak mau buat satu harga?? KENAPA?? ORANG KAYA ORANG BERDARJAT TAK BOLEH NAK RUB SHOULDERS NGAN ORANG BIASA KE??? BERPELUH SAMA2????

KALAU AKU TENGOK KONSERT BON JOVI KAT KL DIRI SEBELAH ORANG KAYA NGAN ORANG BERDARJAT DORANG ORANG KAYA ORANG BERDARJAT DAPAT KUDIS KE??
SO BUAT TIKET MAHAL GILER, JADI AKU KENA BELI TIKET DIRI BELAKANG LA??

ok ok aku mengaku la aku tengok Bon Jovi kat Villa Park, ada tiket Diamond yang tu memang Bon Jovi depan mata, tapi tu Birmingham England nye pasaran, ni South East Asia, nak tengok Bon Jovi main kena tunggu buah tak jatuh.
MACAM BABI KAN???  Metallica pun sama......tiket banyak sangat category, abis peminat2 semua jauh kat belakang, buat la standard semua orang diri ramai2 fair and square, tak pun buat cam style Singapore - konsert rock, taruk Pen A Pen B maximum...dah... 

Sorry...aku emo.. TAPI AKU GERENTI... masa James Hetlfied cakap kat Singapore - WE GOT A NEW WINNER HERE!! THE LOUDEST FANS!!!

Aku gerenti korang, kalau harga tiket Metallica kat Malaysia sama style macam harga tiket kat Singapore, dimana takde banyak category..aku confirm James Hetfield cakap sama untuk kat Malaysia...

pasal peminat semua kat belakang...kat belakang goal post opposite. What the fuck kan?

Paling tak adil, pergi konsert rock, peminat2 yang buat show tu happening, kena paling belakang hanya kerana tak mampu nak beli tiket kat depan...

Aku tak pedulik kalau KAUM ELITE nak cakap apa, aku cakap konsert ROCK!!

Tolonglah come down down to the level of Rakyat Marhaen, at least for a rock concert please........


Kat Singapore, Bon Jovi harga fixed rate la, Semua orang diri sama rata...takde darjat ikut harga tiket, tapi masalahnya konsert masa F1.
Aku confirm dua2 show aku tak pergi.. tapi serious Bon Jovi ngan Phil X, gerek nak mampos. Untung korang tengok nasib la, kalau dorang tiba2 nak seret main 3 jam encore 6 - 7 lagu.

K.. K.. puasa tak boleh emo...balik ke Savatage.


Ni bukan nak cerita atau ulasan pasal Savatage dan album2 mereka sangat la, lain kali kot. Tapi lebih pada nak tunjuk packaging Ultimate Boxset Savatage untuk sapa nak tengok dan berminat.

Aku rasa aku nak tunjuk setiap muka surat dan apa kebenda je la, so sabar la, mungkin perlukan 4 postings untuk abiskan semua.. Yang ni pertama aku tunjuk kotak sikit dan 3 albums pertama dulu.


K aku nak tukar speaking london.

Happy Ramadhan!

It was already more than a month ago that this SAVATAGE - THE ULTIMATE BOXSET was released.
It is very confusing about details for this special boxset, as if you follow Savatage, you will know that the same-looking boxset was already in the market since 2014.

I cannot get much details but I presume this is what actually happened.

In 2014, the Savatage Ultimate Boxset was first released as a limited to ONE THOUSAND (1000) copies. I understand the first pressings got problems from what I read on some reports in the internet.
It immediately become rare and on bloody EBAY, I saw there are being sold for ridiculous amount of money.

Then when its announced the same looking Ultimate Boxset will be released in May 2015 and its still a limited to 1000 limited edition set, I got confused but I really want it so I pre-oredered it.

When the boxset arrived, my number was 1412.
So I believed, the original boxset released was numbered 0001-1000 while this release is from 1001-2000.
So if I am wrong, I would like to apologize, but I think possibly this is what could happen.

I really dont know how to find details and infos of Savatage and their members on the internet.

But nevermind, I got this boxset and I think if you have the old pressings of Savatage CD, or the cassette tapes or just want to get into Savatage, or just want to start to collect Savatage albums, then this is definitely a good buy, futhermore because its all remastered, it has extra songs, bonus songs, and it has great recollections of events, stories and information written by Jon Oliva.

This posting and the next few postings about this Savatage The Ultimate Boxset is not exactly a review, maybe I will talk-cock about the albums some other times, but this is a photo-spread of how the packaging looks like.

For this posting, I will share photos from the first 3 albums that comes on this Ultimate Boxset.
- Sirens (1983) & The Dungeons Are Calling (1984) (The Complete Sessions)
- Power Of The Night (1985)
- Fight For The Rock (1986)
