And here you go.  Should be much easier now.



To make things easier, use a new 9-block numbering scheme.  IE, the one in the top left of this image is now A1; bottom right is C3.  Capiche?

Two other hints.  C3 (above) is still a pretty small crop of the album.  I used a hi-res image.  B2 should actually be more of a green background ... the best image I could find of the cover had this blue tint.

Because the fire made you think it was a Firehouse album.
Only King could mis-spell a LETTER.
Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

I'll be very impressed if people do actually know C1/A3.  There is one person here on the forum who should, but she doesn't frequent this thread.

Do you know the album?  It's awesome prog-metal if you don't.

Yeah, they're both excellent.  I know you're trying to stay away from new stuff Kade, but if/when you get the chance, Closer to Daylight is worth picking up.

Hint added for the final cover.

Oh, and I just noticed that you and I both are (were) a little dyslexic regarding the VP album.

E1: Vanden Plas - The Sepheric Clockwork (amazing album)

Seraphic... not Sepheric.  I always mentally thought it was the latter too!
