Keeper of the Seven Keys Pt 1 or 2?

i've been listening to these albums the past few days. i'm just wondering which one ppl would choose if they had to

Part 1 by far. The prototypical power metal epic. Every other power metal release is derivative of Keeper Part 1. Talk about a blanket statement!

You took the words out of my mouth!

Part 2. I just enjoy the songs a lot more. Don't get me wrong, 1 is fantastic, but 2 floats my boat.

Gotta go with Part I here. Part II is decent too but it has a couple of goofy moments like "Rise And Fall" (hate the chorus in that one!) and "Dr. Stein" (which is a fine song but should've been saved for a B-Side)

Part 2 today, Part 1 tomorrow maybe

You forgot to add part 3

part 1

Part 2 by a hair over part 1

Part 1 easily!!

Pt.1, by virtue of "Halloween" alone!

Both are good, but Pt. 2 is better.

I actually am giving my copy of "The Legacy" to a buddy of mine. The magic just didn't last being held in captivity. A true disappointment of an album.

Part 1 by far

Both are excellent, but I'll give the nod to Part II

I like pt.3

Hard to choose, but if I have to, I would choose Part II mainly because of Eagle Fly Free, Dr. Stein, March of Time and I Want Out.

Part 2 for sure. It has my favorite Helloween song ever, the title track 'Keeper of the Seven Keys"`! SOOOO EPIC!

I can't decide!!!!

My Pt.1 has the track "Judas" in the middle of the cd but not listed on the track listing. It actually comes on after "A Tale That Wasn't Right" and "Future World" Does anyone else have this on thier pressing?

No, and you're sending yours to me, NOW!!!!

i play 2 over 1, however i love them both equally!

Part one. Part two has a few stinkers, and I think "Halloween" is the better epic track. "Keeper Of The Seven Keys" just doesn't really do it for me completely.

I think Part three is actually better than one and two!

I have this version, I got it by chance off eBay. It didn't say Judas was on it, so I was surprised when it suddenly started playing in the middle of the CD. Apparently it's a vaguely rare limited edition version, or at least that's what the internet informed me when I made an attempt to find out why my version was different.

Cool, thanks for the info, smindas.
