I won’t be buying anything this week but I did listen to the extended mix of Why Can’t This Be Love? by Van Halen the other day and didn’t notice it as any longer really. But it sounded fantastic in its remastered state. 5150 was a biggie for me so maybe one day I’ll pick up the remaster.
I do have to say there are some fantastically METAL sleeves released this week. \m/

I pre-ordered the new Power Paladin CD a couple of weeks ago, but according to Amazon, it will not ship until May. 😦

Oh. I hate that for you. Maybe it will miraculously come earlier.

Haha! Thanks, me too. It’s been happening more frequently with overseas labels like Reigning Phoenix Music. But it’s ok. It’s an opportunity to practice the virtue of patience. 😀

I’m behind on my queen sets so it will have to stay that way for awhile.
