Some new waves...

Hi again, ppl! Not beeing able to blog as often as I once did. It doesn't mean I'm not blogging at all. Just takes a bit more time between the updates here. I appreciate all your comments, and I'm
looking forward to even more of those. Hopefully. A more or less clean vinyl rip blog this time, and I hope you appreciate it. It takes quite some time to rip, clean-up, tag & name them correctly, and add pix & some info. More later, but here is the load of today:

.
NWOBHM Compilations

.
A small treat for you NWOBHM'ers out there. Some great stuff, some not so great stuff, but available here for you now. Trying to get a good sounding rip of some of these, ain't easy, due to the poor quality of some of the productions. Anyway, it's NWOHBM history. Google'em for more info if you want. Kerr-arrghh!

Some requests for this one. Sadly the original vinyl ain't in my collection any more. Sold & gave away too many. But I have this old rip lying around, and I've cleaned it up a lot. Removed some
hiss & clicks, and it's a much better one now. Great album. Try it.

Welcome back :)
Almost thought you had caved in but it's good too see that you're still going strong.

Thanks so much for the NWOBHM mega-post. You've reunited me with some favorites that I sold off when I got my first cd player. Dumbass that I was I figured everything I had would eventually come out on compact disc. I'll have to load up the mp3 player and pretend I'm back in high school.
