GRAND ILLUSION around Anders Rydholm (guitar) and Peter Sundell (vocals) have been one of the best Swedish AOR and Melodic Rock outfits untill they called it a day some years ago. The sixth and final studio slbum “Prince Of Paupers” from 2011 is highly valued within the melodic community as one of best AOR / MR albums ever made.

Queensryche (Queensrÿche) - The Warning 1984

As requested, here’s some QUEENSRYCHE albums released in Japan pressed on high quality SHM-CD as part of a remastered reissue campaign from various ’80s Rock artists. The Warning was Queensryche first full length LP, a recording that still stands the test of time.

W.A.S.P. – The Crimson Idol [Japan Remastered 2xCD Expanded Edition]

The Crimson Idol” is the fifth studio album by W.A.S.P., released internationally in 1992 and surprisingly several months later (May 24, 1993) in the United States through Capitol Records.


This Japanese remastered edition including a bonus disc with all the single B-sides plus a great live recording at Donnington 1992 was released exclusively in Japan at the end of the Nineties. Later this 2xCD version appeared in UK for the album’s 15th anniversary using this very same remaster, but this Asian edition is a collectible, deleted and never re-printed again.

On this album, Blackie
