Blue Sky - Volume IV
Not sure if this one counts because I bought it from iTunes for five bucks. First full album I've bought digitally since the actual CDs are rare in physical format. I also plan to get the rest of their catalog on iTunes, being DRM-free and 256kbps. Currently, I only own "Best Of" vol. 1 and 2 and the Live album on CD. Mind you, this is the korean band.

Also got:
Faye Wong - Separate Ways (maxi-single)
Fin.K.L - 2nd album: White

More asian pop goodness.

Big haul from a record show I attended over the holiday weekend...

Artch - Another Return (2 disc edition)
Anthrax - Live: The Island Years
Black Rose - Loveshock
Cloven Hoof - Resist or Serve
Diamond Lil - Diamond Lil
Dynamite - Blackout Station
Fast Kutz - Burnin'
Fozzy - Fozzy
Hellion - Will Not Go Quietly
Highway Chile - Storybook Heroes/For the Wild and Lonely ep
In Solitude - In Solitude
Jethro Tull - The Jethro Tull Christmas Album
Leadfoot - Take A Look
Machine Head - The Blackening
Dean Martin - Christmas with Dino
Noisehunter - Spell of Noise
Sign of the Jackal - Mark of the Beast
Various - A Christmas Gift for You From Phil Spector

Nothing was more than $5. Most of them I got for $2 or $3 dollars each. Some for a buck. Vinyl is where the money is these days. Everyone was unloading their compact discs.

These albums arrived in my mailbox today.

The Obsession album has a different album cover, though.

Dokken - The Anthems (2011)

...this is the Euro version of the album which was released as Greatest Hits on Cleopatra in the U.S. in 2010. It's a bunch of re-recorded classics with four "new" bonus tracks ("Lies," "Magic Man," "Almost Over," and "Bus Stop") tacked on. The Cleopatra version has a cooler cover, but it only had two of the four bonus cuts.

... this addition officially completes my Dokken studio discography! I shall now do the Happy Dance of Cheese.

Anacrusis- Hindsight, Volume 2: Reason Revisited
Annihilator- King of the Kill
Anthrax- Fistful of Metal
Anthrax- Sound of White Noise
Anthrax- Worship Music
Atheist- Unquestionable Presence
Bathory- Blood Fire Death
Deceased- Fearless Undead Machines
Deceased- Supernatural Addiction
Def Leppard- Pyromania
Fog of War- Here Lies Humanity
Harlott- Proliferation
Hatchet- Fear Beyond Lunacy
Iron Maiden- The Book of Souls
Megadeth- Cryptic Writings
Stryper- Fallen

Thrift store pickup for a buck:

The Offspring - Smash

I got this version of the album not too long ago, its not bad but somewhat pointless. I am not sure what the point was of recording their classic material.

Maiden - Book of Souls
Dracula - Swing of Death
Styper - Fallen

99.9% chance they couldn't afford to license the original recordings from the label.

Oh sure. Now you get it.

Of the 2 albums he was on this year, I have to say that the Art of Anarchy album has gotten a lot more spins from me, however, this ones no slouch either. Many tracks could've easily been on some later day STP records.

Shame things ended the way they did, but at least he went out on a good note with both albums.

Stryper - Fallen
Armored Saint - Win Hands Down
W.A.S.P. - Golgotha

...feels like 1985 up in here today
