finally got a physical copy of the first Solitude Aeternus demo. Not Rob Lowe's majestic vocal delivery but there iw a rough charm to these versions.
Got better although I wasn’t sure why they seemed ashamed of their bassist.
The bass player thing is weird, Hugh McDonald was in the band for 22 years before they made him an official member. For some reason they didn't want to officially replace Alec John Such, but he was never going to come back (and he certainly won't now, RIP).
It's the first time I've heard some of the "new" songs, on the whole they're even more awful than I could've possibly imagined... there were one or two I liked though. For some reason all the rockier "greatest hits" seem really lacklustre in this show, even when they're not being played as turgid acoustic arrangements - maybe the band felt constrained by the "intimate" setting.
JBJ's voice is a little bit ropey here but it's much, much worse nowadays. And watching this, he's aged quite a lot in the last decade, he's totally grey now and looks even more like Eric Roberts. Richie's pretty handy on the backup vocals, I must say, but I'm sure the current lineup has that covered too.

late 70s US metal. For fans of early Rush, early Scorpions, Ashbury, early Cirith Ungol, Manilla Road.

Meanwhile, I have been watching videos of people playing cover versions of Judas Priest's Beyond the Realms of Death. I quite often go "cover-surfing" on YouTube.
A classic, IMO
