Get Intense Defense today!

It looks like Joshua Perahia is now selling the remastered version of his classic album with Rob Rock on vocals.  Order now, while supplies last!  It is a bargain at $34.99 pus $10 shipping!  But wait!  There's more!  Order now, and we'll throw in a smokeless ashtray, a year's supply of Rice-A-Roni--the San Francisco treat, and a battery operated coconut so you can bang your head with it!

OK, I am only kidding about the extras, but the price I am dead serious about.

You mean we don't get the Michael Sweet autobiography with this package?

Hmmm, that is rather Offensively Intense.

I'll pass.  It's one thing to be proud of your work...

Hard pass.

Nope. Maybe some day digital downloads for 9.99 but that's it.

I would settle for the Mike Sweet expose that he's ranted about for years.  Trash talking everyone with more success than him, his political rants, and the way he mistreats those that disagree with him is why I am no longer connected with him on Facebook.  He unfriended me once for disagreeing with him after he blessed me out in a quite uncouth manner.  I sent him a friend's request a year later which he accepted.  We talked it out and I thought everything was cool until I noticed the same patterns.  I showed myself the door this time.

Now, that's funny!

When i told my wife about the price, she said the exact same thing.  It is okay to be proud of yourself, but that is just ridiculous.  It is like he is expecting people to either flock to get this no matter the price because he's somebody, or he knows he has rubbed enough people the wrong way and this is the only way to recoup his losses.  Either way, I am not giving him $44.99 for one CD.

If he would just price the CDs more realistically, I'd get this one.  I'd pay $10 for downloads as well if that were an option.

He's going to be remembered for being a jackwagon instead of his music. It's sad.

I've had my own run in with him so I won't be purchasing anything from him.  Ever.

This is sadly funny.  I wouldn't pay that price for any cd.  I have one of the European reissues of the album from a few years back and that will just have to be good enough for me.

I'll settle for keeping my download.

I have a copy of the Original RCA from Germany... 

However Cliffy (J Powell Steinhaus) did a personal remaster about 10 years ago and I have a copy of that (digitally) sounds phenomenal .... (he did the same thing with the orginal Yellow and Black Attack EP)

I have a download from years ago. At that price I’ll just stick with what I have.

You know there will be people who buy it. Probably Rob Rock fans.

Nice.

I can't see myself paying this for a CD unless it really isn't available anywhere else and I'm dead set on owning that particular piece of music. For various reasons, I am not dead set on owning this, since I've never heard it and I haven't heard wonderful reports of the artist.

That's a lot of money for one CD.
I think the shipping outside Europe will be more than $ 10.00.
I might keep the old one of Intense Defense I still have.

I tried doing my own remaster.  I can increase the overall volume and make everything sound more dynamic.  However, I cannot seem to draw out the bass without losing the guitars to the keys.  So I kept the bass lower so the guitars stayed crisp.

What would Joshua think??? 

^I'm sure if you posted about it on his FB, you'd find out!
