Klais Kinski starring Alien knock-off. Also known as Creature. Fairly obscure so doubly wonderful that it's been novelised 49-odd years later.

Really enjoyed this film. I'm. Amazed to find that there's a novelisation of it 23 years later, and that the author has novelised TITAN FIND!

Adkins kicking the shit out of Volgs is the film I never knew I needed.

Just woke up and first thing in my head was "PLAY TYRANT".
And now I can't listen to it without an in-head split-screen image of long hair silk dressing gown Rob harmonising with leather crew cut Rob

The versions on there don't sound too distant from the 2024 remaster. More beef, maybe a little less refined than the new mix. But listening to them all, all it really does is reinforce just how great those songs are. I like the alt version of Diamonds and Rust too.

Cracking movie

The plot thickens on this. Been chatting to Dave from @sonusrocks.bsky.social and it appears the CD reissue that he has (in a lovely 3 disc set w/ Rocka Rolla and Wings) was pressed with the original album versions, so the only way to hear the 1981 remixes is to get the vinyl!

Ooooh... I'd happily own the vinyl just for that cover though!

No I don't think I have. Will try and track them down.

I've always dug my Rocka Rolla vinyl (with the Melyn cover) but blasting the remaster on my car stereo gave it a lovely new sonic dimensionality. I'll always enjoy both though. 'Orses for courses.

I fuckin love it. The big grandiose intro to Out in the Cold is my favourite drunken kitchen air-drumming song to torment Phil with at 1am. The videos are hilarious too.

It is amazing. I know the accepted metal wisdom is British Steel & Screaming For Vengeance are the biggies but for me that late 70s 5 album arc is without parallel. But even then they still pull out a surprise every few albums. Turbo, Painkiller, Nostradamus. Swinging for the fences.

It's been largely ignored as it doesn't fit the metal template. I only really got prompted to properly check it out when I first saw the footage of them on The Old Grey Whistle Test after it was included on a DVD about 25 yrs ago. All silk and embroidery and flares and big hats. Magnificent.

That Rocka Rolla remaster is great too. Properly transformative. Run of the Mill sounds fantastic.

I love the variety and experimentation. 10cc-esque with Epitaph, and Last Rose of Summer setting the template for all the wanky 80s West Coast band ballads with the b&w sitting on stools in big hats nonsense. They had it all going on & STILL managed to grow again w Stained Class & Killing Machine.
