Weird Accept Compliation I grabbed

This is my first Accept disk btw;

I grabbed it thinking it was Balls To The Wall, but what I failed to realize till I got home was it is a odd grouping of that album and Restless And Wild. 5 songs are missing and the tracks are not in order. Heres the tracklisting

1. Fast As A Shark
2. Restless And Wild
3. Don't Go Stealing My Soul Away
4. Love Child
5. Turn Me On
6. London Leatherboys
7. Losers and Winners
8. Princess of the Dawn
9. Head Over Heels
10. Winterdreams
11. Flash Rockin' Man
12. Losing More Then You've Ever Had
13. Neon Nights
14. Shake Your Heads
15. Balls To The Wall

I suppose it'll hold me over till I get the real albums, then it goes bye bye on lala.

that gives you a decent sampling of the two best Accept albums. like you say, it should tide you over until you can snag the full releases. you can't go wrong with any Accept album.

Accept - A Compliation of the Best of Balls to the Wall / Restless and Wild

I always wrote them off for a long time, then I heard the live track on the Starz album and immediatley added them to my want list. I'm enjoying this disk quite a bit right now.

You are a horrible influence, I bought Metal Heart...


I need to stop spending my paychecks the day i get them...

Metal Heart rules! :halford:

Of course IMO, there is no such thing as a bad Accept album. Now if only we can get you hooked on U.D.O.

I always wrote Accept off as well, then ended up with Balls to the Wall and a couple others on LP that I found for like .25 each. Excellent stuff! Still need to pick up someon CD though.

That compilation you got kind of reminds me of that Guns N Roses Use Your Illusion comp they used to have at Wal-Mart. Half the cover was red, half blue and was supossed to have the best songs off both of em.

This reminds me of a comp cd I picked up awhile ago. Accept's Steel Glove: The Collection. I'm not sure who put it together and I hesitate to call it a greatest hits collection because it omits "Balls to the Wall", but it's a decent cd, especially since I don't have much Accept.

I have an Accept "best-of" somewhere simply called "The Collection" (I think) that had the audacity to put a photo of the short lived David Reece lineup on the front cover, even though no songs from the "Eat The Heat" album appear on the disc. Duh!

Haha, don't you just love cash-ins for the labels? Bands should be more careful whom they sign with. Kiss, Scorpions, Accept, Aerosmith, Motörhead, Uriah Heep, Black Sabbath, etc. they all have tons of worthless copilation albums floating around. And now I see Alice Cooper is the next "victim". Check out www.cdon.com and look up Alice....

That reminds me of that Anthrax comp. with the Vol. 8 line-up and its all Joey songs

Check out U.D.O. if you like Accept. His new album Mastorcutor is really great. My favorite two Accept albums are Metal Heart and Russian Roulette. Of course they're also the only two I bought as new releases back in the mid 80's. That might have something to do with it.

I keep reading this thread title as Weird Al Compilation. Haha. And I keep going, "What the fxck?"
