And as you say, they are mice, not rats.

I guess Triumvimice just doesn't roll off the tongue as easily. LOL

Triumvi-RAT

Of course. How did I miss it for son long?
Even though  they were my favorite band from  the first I ever heard them, I missed that myself for quite a bit.

The one on the upper right hand corner, with a mouse holding a little cross, is a Japanese remastering of the Oct. 1st, 1974 Live at Ultrasonics bootleg recording entitled "The Road To Nowhere"; The left hand one on row 2 is a remastering of the Providence, RI live bootleg recording also from the fall of 1974 called "Illusions at the Palace". The middle one on row 3 is the back cover of the 2002 Old Loves Die Hard remaster, and the middle on on row 5 is the back cover of the 2002 remaster of Mediterranean Tales.

That's an amazing collection!!! Does Old Loves Die Hard have a different cover here? I have glasses on my I can't spot it. Which cover is it?
 
   Old Loves Die Hard is between Pompeii and Spartacus; it is the back cover of the 2002 remaster of the album....

  JD, I really love Triade. I have seen the cover for the one on the left; but never heard it; is it jazz rock from the seventies?

Cool find! I think a lot of the Si-Wan releases are hard to find these days. Oddly enough I visited a store in the late 1990s in Toronto, Canada, called Black Planet. Apparently Si-Wan used that store as their North American distribution center for several years. I didn't know it at the time. Wish I had because I could've looked deeper into what they had from Si-Wan.

 I have never heard either of them. Are they as bad as all the reviews I have read say? Smile

TRIUMVIRAT À La Carte reviews

TRIUMVIRAT Russian Roulette reviews


You know, though not progressive rock, A La Carte is actually a nice pop rock effort that I sometimes get in the mood for; I would say it has something going for it in that vein; but Russian Roulette, I honestly have tried to get to grips with it, I used to be somewhat sympathetic to it, but in the final analysis, it is a stinker. It has no lasting redeeming qualities whatsoever.
