Yep, pretty high on my wantlist that one. It will be added as soon as msp sends me his copy for free
I did a bit of digging around this one not too long ago, many of the tracks (or at least something by those same artists) are to be found around the web.Astra Wally wrote:Anyone familiar with this compilation? DaN, Keir, BigFoot ?

Any hard rock / early metal / southern rock bands on it? (except for the Justice McBride Band, which I'm already aware of...)
), but frankly the name isn't very promising.

Of the bands i've heard...
Alecstar were a Pomp/Hard Rock band who put out a couple of albums.
Mr. Edd : oddball ska/reggae with a new wave edge.
Moss Back Mule Band played Country, as did the The Dust Devil Band.
The Works played mainstream rock with prominent piano.
New York Flyers played Hard Rock, verging sometimes on Metal onstage, but more restrained on vinyl.
Joe Whiting and the Bandit Band were kinda Springsteen like rock
Holmes And Mancini were a folk/soft rock duo.
Todd Hobin Band were AOR.
That leaves 3 acts.
We know that the Justice McBride Band were Southern Rockers & Discogs has Kentucky classified as a 'Southern Rock' band too, with a self-titled 1982 LP to their name.
Who knows what The Netherlands Band sounded like, (a bit flat maybe?
So for Corroseum purposes, i guess the question is, are you prepared to take a punt on it for the non-LP Justice McBride track, with Kentucky being potentially interesting, and in hope that the Alecstar & New York Flyers songs are up your alley?
If you can find it for the price of an EP, i'd say go for it.
Hope this helps.
No problem my friend, glad to help.Astra Wally wrote:

Alecstar sounds fine to my ears, from what I found on Youtube.
About Kentucky (totally forgot about them...), they played decent southern/country rock. Not an exclusive track though, as it can be found on their sole LP from 1982.
Not sure if it's worth it after all, though I really want to hear that non-LP Justice McBride Band song....
If I may say so myself I think this page looks a whole lot better and certainly more 'collector-inspiring' than before.The Corroseum wrote:After solving a couple of technical difficulties I've finally been able to give The Corroseum's Metal Compilation Encyclopedia a MAJOR facelift: the main page now show the album sleeves instead of that horribly ugly & boring old links list. I've also added a new filter: Collectable labels & special selections. With this function you can now generate the following lists:
Azra Records & co. compilations
D&S Records compilations
Ebony/Reaction Records compilations
New Renaissance Records compilations
Pang Records compilations
US & Canadian radio compilations
