Sneaking in a Rush album cover undetected by DTF for this long? Well done! :lol

Does that mean we're ready for a new one? Because I've got one ready to go if anyone's interested.

I know what you mean. :lol I always try to get in quick to scoop up the few I actually know, otherwise it's just obscure stuff left that I'd have no chance of ever knowing. And by obscure, I mean anything remotely prog. :blob:

So am I fine to post mine, guys?

C3: Dio - Lock up the wolves

Nope, no prog, although I did try to mostly stick to stuff I knew people on the forum would know (with a few oddball ones). I think it adds to the challenge to have some variety in who posts these to get a rotation of genres. :tup

Two points to the Zydar. Hopefully these aren't too hard to get. I suspect a few of them may definitely need clues, but a lot of them I know are known by at least several people.

Facepalm on Fair Warning.  I should've picked that one out effortlessly.  I fail.

I did try to pick a less obvious part of the cover. I probably wouldn't have recognized it either. There are still a couple of others I think you might know.

Dude, do you really know this album?!

If so, then I want to make sweet, sweet love to you...............r music collection.  :biggrin:

The album was actually released last year, unless you mean you discovered it this year. I made the pic obvious, because I figured it would be obscure enough.


A3 Whitesnake Saints And Sinners (great album btw)

D3 Bruce Kulick- BK3

And both also correct. Surprised someone else got BK3 without a clue too, although I expected Saints and Sinners to go early.

lol. I'm an 80s boy and a KISS fan, hence knowing the BK3.
Love this album, as much if not more than After The Rain. No, I got it on release but thought that was this year... time flies! How Can I Miss You is a great song. It's a good grown up rock album.

The DLR is one of my favourites- Jason Becker owns that album, and Fair Warning is my fave VH album by far. All in all a good collage, and I know I've seen a few others, just struggling to place them.

I love Lightning Strikes Twice, but haven't heard After the Rain (or anything else by them). Is that really wrong?

Early-ish '80s hard rock album. Does that help any?

First round of clues, so they're fairly general, but still help to narrow it down-

A1 - Melodic rock album released last year.
A2 - New wave of swedish sleaze metal.

B1 - Features a member of Dream Theater.
B2 - Folk rock. Coming from me, that pretty much gives it away.
B3 - Early 80s hard rock. The band is generally softer rock, and still going.

C1 - This metal band has a female vocalist.
C2 - Late 80s hair metal.
C4 - That's a dragon. So clearly this album is power metal.

D1 - Melodic death metal.

Do you know the Crazy Lixx album, or did you Google New Wave of Swedish Sleaze (since it's on the first page of Google image search results when I checked)? :lol

Because I either applaud your fine music tastes, or applaud your search skills. :hat
