All Things Vinyl

Track B3 has four spoken lines. In English, but I can only make out the first two:

"Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust"
something something something (sounds like six syllables)
something something (sounds like four syllables)

And that's all she wrote! Or, recorded, in this case!

HYMN FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE (Independence Day).

Brothers and sisters on this day Of deathless glory, let us come United in our glad array To hymn our fathers' martyrdom. Ashes to ashes? Dust to dust? So let it be! In God we trust.

They died -- they died -- and we are free. Take up their cross! Deserve their crown! The stainless flag of liberty By man shall not be trodden down! Ashes to ashes? Dust to dust? So let it be! In God we trust.

In war and earthquake, wreck and wrong, Still let the flag of freedom fly In peace and safety, still be strong! For we will live as we would die. Ashes to ashes? Dust to dust? So let it be! In God we trust. Though ruin wash the world in blood, Though death devour, though time decay, Let but our hearts hold brotherhood, And this they shall not take away. Ashes to ashes? Dust to dust? So let it be! In God we trust.

Stand! and join hands! and let us sing! Shake out Old Glory to the Skies! With heart and hand defiant fling Our purpose against Destiny's. Ashes to ashes? Dust to dust? So let it be! In God we trust.

More SAVATAGE vinyl arrived today!!

The double yellow vinyl of Edge Of Thorns and Dark Blue vinyl of Handful Of Rain!




I thought there'd be a vinyl single with Handful Of Rain but instead it was a fluffy vinyl look-a-like...don't really understand the purpose of that but what the heck! I'll take it!

[Vyn]

It's the Savatage scoop-up in Finland!

I bought The Dungeons are Calling back when it came out. A friend of mine really, really liked it. I don't have it anymore and don't recall what happened to it, but I can only imagine that my friend borrowed it at some point and it lost its way back home.

That's a shame...I'd imagine those original vinyls aren't all that plentyful anymore these days....

This reissue series is kind of awesome...and the prices aren't insane either...the double vinyl of Edge Of Thorns was just 26€...

Well an old friend of mine from Netherlands has just opened a record store dealing with old (and some new) vinyl...he said I'd be getting first dibs on all Sabbath and Purple stuff atleast that he gets.

Already made a deal with original NL pressing of Born Again and now he got a mint (or near mint) Machine Head...

I fear I'll be spending a lot of money soon...
