[kj] k.js remasters ,a couple of choices here.....

Thu May 11 17:52:49 EDT 2006

When I get some money coming in I'll have to pick some up. It was funny cause I went into the record store and thought "what the hell! The shelves are full of Killing Joke!" I'm used to just seeing one copy of the most recent album on the shelves.

reply to wscheip concerning remasters-(k.j. of course) 

reverlations is as hard as hell (the remaster version,if you like heavy drums and electrifying guitar,they have upped the anti several notiches concerning deep quality,and deeper throbbing beats. 

then when you have brought that one,go get wtf(whats this for)--remastered as well,you wont be dissapointed there either !!) 

very good stuff.,plus the added--extra tracks make for extra value for money. 

there are other remasters as well,i will leave it to some one else to add the others! 

melinda. ( that is the name i was born with,look above at em address,thats the only name i will answer to ok ;-D )
