Classics Reborn

I'm not a big enough fan to buy such a thing anyway, but for someone like me they'd have been better off focusing on the live CD's or the rare unreleased stuff and making it a smaller package.

I like Samurai Eddie. I'll also be buying it on the day of release and not just because I own the rest of them. I'm looking forward to the album now having listened to the single a few more times.

I knew there was a reason I didn't bid on those guitars and it had nothing to do with the fact I couldn't play them! What an effort for 3 guitars!!

I guess I'd never got around to watching the video attached to the article because I notice there is a guy in the clip who refers to himself as Marty Friedman solo artists, not Ex Megadeth Marty.
I'm a little sad it's so low. That's 3 guitars. I wanted him to get millions! :)

Yeah Eddie looks cool. I think a battle scene with Samurai Eddie would have cooler. Dead bodies all around him!

Only five songs a disc. So like 40-ish minutes each one. Seems like something that would actually be better put together in my itunes. Keep it all together. Although they did say the songs were pretty varied, so maybe flow isn't as important.

The last three songs are 35 mins, that used to be a CD to itself :)

Given the cause I'd love to have seen them go for higher but at the same time I really don't expect too many guitars in this world to make that sort of cash.

Yeah that's true. The name apparently is loosely translated to Tactics and Strategy so I guess the single image works better for that, but we all know Eddie just wants to kill people so a fight scene would be more appropriate for Eddie.

Hahaha. For Van Halen maybe.

I've got a few CD's that were only 35 minutes, especially older ones. I can only imagine what any band of the 80's might have been told by their record companies if they came to the studio with 3 songs and said 'there's your album'

Yeah I know. Buuuut. Fuck reality! :p. In reality awful players like Curt Cobain have their shitty guitars go for a million.
I wish talent was respected more lol. Jason can only sell these once.

I think VH albums were more 17 minutes a side in the Roth days lol. I know a lot of rock albums and Punk albums were short a lot. But I don't have many metal albums like that.
Hmm, actually I wonder what Killing Is My Business clocks in at?

Well that's true and the people who buy that shit are morons buying a name, let's face it the same fuckwits brought locks of his hair and it couldn't even be proven it was his. Look at that dick who bought Mustaine's guitars, he paid a price for the name and the name alone, he didn't give a shit who they belonged to he wanted them to convince people to use his studio or services.

I agree that Jason's talent should be more respected and recognised than people like Cobain, but I tend to think someone who pays for Jason's guitar is a fan and is someone who will actually use it for themselves not to make money and that's exactly what Jason wants to happen with them.
