For the record, the album we are currently listening to is Thin Lizzy's Thunder and Lightning - their very last effort, and one oft their best.

Ah, Pablo, I share your dislike of The House of Blue Light, while I think that both Perfect Strangers and Rapture of the Deep are excellent albums. I have never heard Slaves and Masters in its entirety, but I know I don't want to, because I HATE Joe Lynn Turner's voice with a passion.

I never said they were in the lever of their best albums, did I?Confused For quality, I put those mentioned by you(with the exception of Book of Taliesyn which I consider phenomenal) down, but by preference I prefer S&M, WDWTWA and TBRO 2  times over Perfect Strangers, Rapture of the Deep and House of Blue Light. 



never mind book of taliesyn, i meant to ay houe of blue lightWink
my list is something like this:

  1. in rock
  2. fireball
  3. machine head
  4. bananas
  5. april
  6. perfect strangers
  7. burn
  8. stormbringer
  9. come taste the band
  10. rapture of the deep
  11. book of taliesyn
  12. purpendicular
  13. debut
  14. house of blue light
  15. wdwtwa
  16. abandon
  17. battle rages on

LOLIt's ok with me. I find Rapture of the Deep, a hit and miss record, which I previously stated in my review which I deleted. It has some very good moments, as well as stinkers. I still don't get the thrill of Perfect Strangers, I find it one of their weakest, except for the title track and Knockin' at your Back Door, the rest I find it plain dull and sometimes annoying, no offense.

I got a mp3 with all the albums until secret world. It's not bad .Of course you wont hear epics or anything like that , but still it's fairly enjoyable.

Did you actually buy that Ashra record? Where did you get it? It's quite rare and expensive around here. If you liked that one you should hear their selftitled album.
 
PD: No love for Book of Talesyn in the Archives it seems
