[2025] Ozzy Osbourne - Let Me Hear You Scream (B-Sides, Bonus Tracks & Rarities)(BLR)

I started off with fifty tracks but cut it down to this. This spans Ozzy's complete solo career.

[2025] Ozzy Osbourne - Road To Nowhere (1980 - 2000)(BLR)

Not sure if I'll do a 2001 - 2025 collection as I have so much on the go. An Ozzy Best Of... from these years should be a four Disc collection, but I've whittled it with difficulty down to two. More Ozzy and Sabbath will be coming over the next few days.

[1996] Gert Wilden & Orchestra - Schulmadchen Report

[1996] Gert Wilden & Orchestra - Schulmadchen Report

For something just a little different let's go with German Porno Movie scores from the late 1960's early 1970's. Gotta love these little oddities!

[2025] Black Sabbath - Into The Void (2CD)(BLR)

[2025] Black Sabbath - Into The Void (2CD)(BLR)

To Celebrate Ozzy and the final Black Sabbath show I thought I'd pick my favourite song from each album and that would be the compilation. Needless to say picking just the one song is impossible, so it moved to two. Then that was not enough so it morphed into this, and of course the Collection I posted yesterday. Rat Salad Architects was for the more knowing Sabbath fan and this one is for the casual/new listener. Play it loud!

[2025] Black Sabbath - Rat Salad Architects (2CD)(BLR)

Ozzy and Black Sabbath have been a large part of my musical life for over 40 years. I had two Sabbath Comps and two Ozzy Comps on the workpile to get to before final show The End - Live In Birmingham, but life got in the way. I still haven't got to the Ozzy ones, but have finished the Sabbath. I know it's a bit late, but I do eventually get to things. Anyway here's the first one.

[2025] Heavy Metal Kids - Making A Racket (2CD)(BLR)

[2025] Heavy Metal Kids - Making A Racket (2CD)(BLR)

Another in my "If it doesn't exist..." series. We all love Gary and the Heavy Metal Kids, and know the albums and the songs, and with this I wanted to put together a Compilation that I would love to see as an official release. I started with wanting to put all the 7" singles together in order, and it morphed into this collection. With Outtakes, Unreleased and Live tracks culled from a pile of Reissues. Just a lovely noise!

[2025] Rich Kids - Here Come The Marching Men (BLR)

[2025] Rich Kids - Here Come The Marching Men (BLR)

And this is where the Trilogy started. The Power Pop pure Rock 'N' Roll band formed by Glen Matlock of the Sex Pistols, Midge Ure and Steve New. Another of my "If it do't exist..." series. This collects the album Ghosts of Princes In Towers, the B-Sides, both Peel Sessions, Demos and a couple of Live Tracks to round things off. I'm really pleased with this collection, and if I don't say so for myself it's a must for everyone! Wee typo. The copy of Ghosts on the comp is the 1980 Vinyl Reissue. It originally came out in 1978.

[1980] Visage - Visage (2025 BLR Extended Version)

[1980] Visage - Visage (2025 BLR Extended Version)

Part two of the Midge Ure Trilogy. For me this is the only Visage album that has withstood the test of time. The odd song stands out from The Anvil and Beat Boy, but I couldn't listen to either album front to back anymore. Anyway, this collects the album, the B-Sides, a pile of Remixes and a couple of tracks from the other two albums snuck in. And make sure to come back tomorrow for the best part of the Trilogy!

[1976] Slik - Slik (2007 Reissue)

[1976] Slik - Slik (2007 Reissue)

Midge Ure's Scottish Bubblegum Pop/Glam outfit from when bands like the Bay City Rollers, The Osmonds, Racey, Sweet, Slade and Showaddywaddy ruled the airwaves. It's cheesey, it's kitsch, it's all sorts of toe tapping tweeness. This is the first in a series of three Midge Ure posts that will end in something I have compiled that I think is pretty damn awesome!

[2003] Texas Terri Bomb - Your Lips... My Ass!

My very good buddy G asked for a copy of this and I thought I'd share it. I thought I'd already posted this classic piece of Punk Rock and I'm kinda shocked that I haven't. I've tagged on a couple of bonus tracks as well. A must have piece of delicious noise.

Freshly in. Same type of self entitled knob heads, who havn't the brains to shoot me a private email and ask nicely. And unless I know you I won't be responding to personal requests for awhile. This is why I've been considering shutting down the Blog again. Gotta say how things have been lately with spam and bullshit I might just delete the whole damn thing tomorrow.

I had never heard this until my very good buddy G. asked me to track down a copy and I'm glad he did. Richard was of course in D Generation and this is a banger you'll have on constant rotation. Thank G. and turn it up loud!
