What do you think about the K-Tel metal/hard rock compilations from the 80s? I know that they had mostly mainstream bands on them like Dio, Twisted Sister, and Van Halen along with some bands that wouldn't even be metal like Triumph and Rush. Every once in a awhile, a beauty would appear from somebody like Armored Saint. Anyway, I always thought they were cool in some ways. One in particular, "Masters Of Metal" got me into Y&T, Twisted Sister, and Black Sabbath's "Trashed." Even though it is "mainstream," it has a special place in my collection. All K-Tel metal compilations now have a cool 80s nostalgia attached to them. The songs on the releases are not rare, but finding the K-Tel compilations on anything other than cassette or vinyl is next to impossible. I'm sure they are not necessarily in demand for most metal hunters. It doesn't mean, however, that some people wouldn't mind having a copy of a few of the compilations if they were made available to them.
Anyway, this post has two purposes. I would like to hear your thoughts on the K-tel compilations. Also, I have a bunch of lossless cassette and vinyl rips of many of the K-tel releases. I have not posted them mainly because the songs on the releases are not rare. I want to see if there is any demand for them, before I post them here. I recorded them based on the nostalgia factor alone.
I have lossless rips of the following:
Crazed-An All Out Metal Attack
Masters Of Metal
Masters Of Metal Strikeforce Vol. 1
Masters Of Metal Strikeforce Vol. 2
White Hot Masters Of Metal
Let me know what you think on both accounts.
