    Alice Cooper 'Special Forces' (new blue vinyl).
    Alice Cooper 'Killer' (new gold vinyl).
    Styx 'Pieces of Eight' (used gold vinyl).

    Yup. A colored vinyl binge.

    Love me some AC though. If you are a person that never got into this guy... dive in (this is my gift to you). Go in this order (my favourite album and favourite tune from the album in brackets):

    1. Welcome to My Nightmare (Cold Ethyl- an album full of great songs, but this has always been a 'go to' for me)
    2. Special Forces (You Look Good in Rags- great guitars and cool song)
    3. Flush the Fashion (Clones + Headlines- great songs)
    4. Killer (You Drive Me Nervous- really good song... tough to pick a personal favourite because the album is one that doesn't really feature a true standout for my tastes even though Be My Lover and Under My Wheels are noted as two)
    5. Billion Dollar Babies (I Love the Dead- I have to play this song when my wife is sleeping on road trips)
    6. Love it to Death (Ballad of Dwight Fry- dark tune with classic Alice vocal work)
    7. Goes to Hell (Wish You Were Here- cool track) 
    8. Muscle of Love (Hard Hearted Alice- gawddam awesome song!!!)
    9. School's Out (School's Out- a commercial song and overplayed... but a classic nonetheless) 
    I love Alice Cooper Goes To Hell. It is the epitome of when albums were played from Side 1 first song to Side 2 last song. It is a story. My favorite song from the album is Wake Me Gently but the whole album is pure genius. IMHO. 

    Good album for sure.

    Ironic you bring it up because today mountain biking I had Alice Cooper on shuffle and it hit me with a ton of Goes to Hell. I had forgotten how good some of those songs are (and I do remember how the album flows as you speak).

    Some of the songs they hit me with (I might add) didn't exactly get me pumping my legs faster lol. They inspired me to thinking about stuff.

    Went on a record buying bender for some reason
     today:

    Neko Case - Hell-on (peach vinyl)
    Jason Isbell - Live at Ryman (green vinyl)
    R.E.M. - BBC Sessions
    Tom Waits - Heart of Saturday Night
    Tom Waits - Mule Variations 
    Amanda Shires - To the Sunset
    Was the green Isbell vinyl a special edition?  I thought his store was selling a white pre-order version.

    I bought it at my local record shop. I believe it was stickered as “indie store” edition, or something like that.

    Thanks JerParker and MFC .... The Amazon reviews mention general unhappiness with a poor recording...  Do you agree?

    Chiming in here, but I have the standard black version and yes, the recording is sub par and disappointing. The drums are downright horrible on a few tracks and the vocals are hot. Very disappointing in my opinion as I was really looking forward to this and these are careless errors.

    Unfortunately, I have to agree. The mix on this is not good. Really muffled, drums are lost on several tracks,kind of a mess.  Which is too bad.

    The Gold Isbell is a bit muddy, as mentioned above. It’s not god-awful, but it is disappointing.

    Silver Jews - American Water

    For the LP edition, American Water was remastered at half-speed at the iconic Abbey Road Studios “to provide depth and nuance for all future vinyl listeners.”

    I think they sound great especially for the money.
    Turn it up!
