Hey KMA folks!
I am thrilled to announce that I have procurred another of my Holy Grail items! Now, I understand that, in terms of difficult to find, this one really wasn’t that hard to get, but I added it to my Grail List because it’s part of completing my discography of studio albums for this band, and I have never seen it in my town. Anyway, I am very pleased to announce the arrival of:
Black Sabbath featuring Tony Iommi – Seventh Star!
This means I now own every album up to and including this 1986 entry (plus 1992’s Dehumanizer)! Wahoo! I’ve updated my Grail List to reflect this new addition.
And don’t forget folks, if you have any other items to add to yours, or a list of items you want that you’d like to see in our KMA Master Grail Search List so we can all help you find them, let me know! I’ve helpfully added a link to the full list in the Pluggery post that sits permanently at the top of our main page. Drop me a comment there if you want to add a list or change/update yours!
Other Goodies:
Surely this one was an error:
1) Iron Maiden – Maiden England ’88 (2CD), with the 3 unreleased encore tracks. I got this for $6.54 CDN. Seriously. I think Amazon made an error. A 2CD Iron Maiden set, released only last year, for less than $7? I’m really certain that that should probably have been $16.54 not $6.54. Not that I’m complaining AT ALL! Hahaha total score! Wahoo!!!
And this is one I’ve wanted for a while…
2) Cynic – Focus (The Expanded Edition). Roadrunner Records has had a lot of great records in their roster, as you all know, and this one is supposed to be a sure-fire classic of progressive rock. This expanded edition re-issue includes 6 bonus tracks, a deluxe booklet, new artwork, previously unseen pictures and a personal message from Paul Masvidal. I’m very excited to dig into this one.
Let’s GIVE ‘ER!
Hope your throw down a Maiden England Review!!!

It’s especially satisfying given how close I came to buying it as a new release. I mean, I was thisclose, but then funds had to go elsewhere. And now? Rawk!

Good times! All of those albums are stellar. Very interested to hear what you make of them all… especially Cynic.

Thanks! Yeah, I’m really stoked about these. I don’t always do a “Hey look what I got!” post. They usually just show up as a review. But this one seemed a particularly great crop, especially considering I got a Grail List item too!
I have a buddy here who just loves that Cynic record, so I thought it was about time I heard it for myself. RR really did a nice job on this package.
Reviews will be forthcoming eventually, of course!

That’s the same edition of it I have. Very nice! I’ve heard other stuff of theirs and it’s been ok but that album is the one.
