WHITESNAKE – Slide It In [Japan SHM-CD remastered MiniLP] Out Of Print 2010, MP3+FLAC
As requested, here’s the only version on mini-LP replica SHM-CD of WHITESNAKE‘s “Slide It In“, in its original 2000’s remaster (for many, the best done for this album), unfortunately now out of print. Yeah, there’s the more recent ‘Ultimate 6-CD Edition’, including a new 2019 mix, the US mix, the UK mix, and more, but this SHM-CD sonics are… different. It’s a matter of taste, we prefer this one.

As requested, here’s the only version on SHM-CD / cardboard sleeve reissue of WHITESNAKE 1980’s classic “Ready An’ illing“, remastered plus 5 bonus tracks. In our humble opinion, the best reissue you can get in terms of sound quality.
Vyper – Prepared To Strike 1984 / 2008 Retrospect Records, MP3+FLAC
We all know how great the 1984 metal explosion was, with so many great bands releasing CLASSIC albums during that time. It was at the height of the glam / sleazy craze that VYPER, a Kansas City act, left to join the troops led by Ratt, Motley Crue, Quiet Riot… This little-known band released a real gem in this rock genre during that same year.
Continue reading Vyper – Prepared To Strike 1984 / 2008 Retrospect Records, MP3+FLAC -->Tony Carey – Blue Highway (2018 Expanded Edition), MP3+FLAC
Keyboardist / vocalist TONY CAREY started a successful solo career after his time with Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow. ‘Blue Highway’ is one of our favorite Carey solo LP’s, originally released in 1985 so you guess which kind of sound to expect. This “Blue Highway (2018 expanded edition)“ is a welcomed reissue to re-discover this very good album, plus 2 extra tracks.
More AOR oriented than his previous solo works, Carey’s ‘Blue Highway’ sports that 1985 polished sound production handled by Peter Hauke (White Lion) and mastered by Greg Fulginiti (Aerosmith, Whitesnake).
‘We Wanna Live’ is a wonderful opener, a racing AOR number with fine guitars / synths and a catchy chorus. ‘She Moves Like A Dancer’ bring to mind Michael Stanley Band, a very American tune with a home-grown, earthy rock and roll sound, with huge use of melody.
‘Live Wire’ is classic Carey, and classic ’80s; a midtempo full of atmosphere which has a lot in common with the Canadian AOR sound from the era: pristine sound and clean arrangements. Title track ‘Blue Highway’ is an elegant, suit & tie AOR ballad, ‘Love Don’t Bother Me’ goes for radio friendly poppy lite AOR, then ‘Katy Be Mine’ has some of The Synch melodic rock to it.
‘Like A Rock’ brings back uptempo riffs, a mix of strong guitars, synths and Carey’s raspy vocals, overall resulting like a Bryan Adams tune off ‘Reckless’. The extra tracks were recorded in the Nineties, more focused in Tony’s vocals and interesting lyrics than the ‘glossy’ sound design.
A really welcomed reissue to hear again this well-crafted collection of songs with that mid-Eighties magic.
Highly Recommended
