You, my reader, are going to pick an album for me to review each month. It is really simple…first, I will give you 5 albums to choose from and second, you will tell me which one of those you would like to see reviewed on the site. See…simple! Now, if you want to cast more than one vote, comment on the Twitter and Facebook post and you could get up to 3 votes on your favorite pick.
The choices are simple, I pick 5 albums and lately I’ve been going on a loose theme. This time the theme isn’t loose, it is pretty straight-forward. We are going with 5 albums I have in my collection that are Rock Candy Re-Issues. What are the 5 albums you ask? I have them right here…
Diving for Pearls – ‘Diving for Pearls’ (1989)
Blue Murder – ‘Blue Murder’ (1989)
Saigon Kick – ‘Saigon Kick’ (1991)
RTZ – ‘Return to Zero’ (1991)
The Scream – ‘Let It Scream’ (1991)
Let me know which one you would like to see and sometime in April, I will post a review of the album that gets the most votes. You have one week to decide and from there I will start listening to the album and do a review.
Thanks for participating!!

I’m chiming in for the scream. The Netflix series Last Light I think totally stole that album graphic!

Sorry? It’s on Amazon! There’s a logo used by the bad guys that looks very similar to that album cover.

Blue Murder is a good album. Sykes shreds, good arrangements, chunky guitar tone. Carmine Appice on drums, Tony Franklin on bass.

Dang, I’m familiar with all of these except Diving With Pearls. I’ve never heard of them. I have to pick Pearls for that reason. I need to know more about them!

I hope they win so I can review it for you. If not, maybe I’ll review it anyway.

I’m guessing you have a good bunch of Rock Candy reissues now. You could always do a best to worst list in the future.
I have thirty of their reissues now. While they’re not all classics, they’ve turned me on to all kinds of seemingly unknown bands.
