I just remember being very underwhelmed by it. It may not be as bad as I remember, but had they finished on Secret Messages, that would have been perfect.

Not so much a journal then as a few lines scribbled on the back of an envelope.

Thanks, I always get a warm and fuzzy feeling when turn someone onto a favorite band of mine.

Ordered from a Netherlands dealer on vinyl, at reasonable cost. All thanks to YOU, Nea.

I hope it's good quality. I heard some vynil re-releases are not too good sound-wise, say depending on the source material. Discogs sometimes mention the quality of albums that are re-releases, e.g. it came from a restored tape not a mp3. It's a good resource to have. https://www.discogs.com
Best of luck.

Thanks very much for the link. The dealer is highly reviewed and claims it was remastered from the original cassette tape. I’m not an audiophile by any means, but fingers crossed it will be at least decent to good quality.

A lot to love on that list Trollheart. Except Lana Del Ray. I loved that war of the worlds record you recommended me. I still listen to it once in a while.

So much to love. So much to hate. Hey, TH, is there an NWOBHM thing in your journal? I feel like there is.

I had no time for LDR either till Goofle suggested that album for "Love or Hate?" and I just fell in love with it. Haven't heard anything else from her as yet. Yeah, Jeff Wayne is the biz.
