This Dio title is a SIGNIFICANT upgrade on previous releases of these shows, which were all radio-broadcasts, be they silvers or (mostly) CDRs.
All of the Godfather titles are now in!
PM if you wanna learn more info about GF Pibk Floyd titles, zimbo ;)
The Beatles Decca Audition Tape is from 1/1/62 not 1/1/61 and was officially released on vinyl in 1982 minus the Lennon/McCartney tracks,so a welcome silver release for this historic set of recordings.
They are due in a week or so.
Any clue when the Godfathers are due? Right away? The real Antwerp set and the PF Box looks like instant purchases for myself!
The Iron Maiden looks killer, hopefully we will get a substantional upgrade in sound over the Back in the Village title, released yearts ago on the Meltdown label.
The Floyd box set looks amazing!
