| I think I gave about that much for the split disc that had that and "Rock, Stock, & Barrel" on it. _________________ I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. https://christianhardmusic.niceboard.com/ | |

| When you say "album" I assume you mean an actual album/record and that you are not just using album as a generic term?
'Cause the cd is available for like $6 on Amazon. |

| No I mean the cd. The one that's $6 on amazon is an authorized cdr. Mines an original. | |

| Wow..didn't know it had become such an expensive item. I got one of the originals last year for only 11 or 12. Of course, I originally had one when it first came out and foolishly got rid of it years ago...along with the resat of my collection |

| I got some European reissue version several years back that is also OOP. The album is great, but the production/mastering left a little to be desired. _________________ "I used to be indecisive.......... Now I'm not sure."

| Just scored Atomic Opera's Gospel Cola for free! Amazon had one left at $5.45 with free shipping for Prime members, and I was able to use cash back rewards from my Discover card for the purchase. | |

| So I shouldn't have pseudo-bragged about my Angelica CD. I don't really care for it. I'm going to give it a week or so but honestly I may trade it off.
I know folks love Rob Rock but the only stuff he's done I care for is his solo work. | |

| Personally I've never thought Angelica was "uber awesome," but I don't think they were so bad. That CD was their first if I'm not mistaken, and while it's not Rob's best vocal work it was early in his career. And the Ken Tamplin song on that CD is pretty good.
IMO, don't trade it off. I've lost count of how many times I've gotten rid of a CD only to regret it later. Sometimes I look at my collection now and think, "Is there anything I don't listen to that I'm willing to part with?" and the answer is always, "nope!" However, if you have your mind made up I am sure someone here or over at CMR will trade or pay for it.
As for Rob's solo work being his best, I agree concerning the song writing. However, as good as his solo work goes I think over all his work with Impelletteri is better; I don't think he has ever been able to find a guitar player to match Chris. | |

| I'll pay you, and maybe trade you (if you want anything in particular) for that first CD… | |
