I'm lucky to have a rare Japanese box set of the first four albums from 1991. I'm not sure if it was remastered or not but it sounds great!

The SWW DD is really worth having!!! It is a shame that New Jersey wasn't released as well :(
I think it is still on sale in some shops, I've seen it not so long ago.

Aloha !

Those are just the regular releases, not remastered at all. The box was released to "celebrate" the release of Young Guns II. Universal Japan used to do this everytime a new album was released. If you've seen this in a shop and still can get your hands on it please send me a PM. :D

That is a cool set. It comes up on eBay fairly often, too. I've only managed to restrain myself so far because it doesn't contain any unique music. That's what's so special about the Japanese re-masters . . . those bonus discs full of treats. :cool:

Okay, I'll start working on the SWW DD! Yeah, I need to be spending more money on this band right now. Sheesh. LOL

I'm sorry, I was speaking about the SWW DD that I saw in a shop, not this box, unfortunately.

Well, there is a mini CD which has acoustic Wanted Dead Or Alive on one side and a interview with the band about their favourite tracks on the other. I bought it because I had only the remastered versions. Japanese people were always ahead :) - the cases has staffing (I hope it is a correct word) beneath the cds, so they can't get scratched.

Totally offtopic: We (Czech Republic) just got the first gold medal at the Olympics - at speed skating. I'm very happy, so I had to tell you :D

Oh sure -- tell me about the mini CD. LOL I love those things for some reason! I have several of the singles that were released in that format even though there isn't anything unique on them.

And "staffing" isn't the right word there -- maybe "padding," if I'm understanding what you mean correctly.

Great news about the Czech medal. Unfortunately, NBC must be saving the speed skating to show in the evening broadcast. They'll do just about anything to NOT show us live competition. <sigh> A U.S. athlete, Johnny Spillane, just won the first medal for the U.S. EVER (a silver) in Nordic Combined. It was a thrilling race to the line. My dogs were annoyed that I woke them up when I was yelling at the TV! LOL

I know - I fell asleep watching this afternoon. They did everything but show us the competition.

The Nordic Combined was brilliant, though! And the coverage was amazing. I can't imagine how many microphones they must have along the track, because you could actually hear the skis on the snow.

Yeah, padding would be a better word. I get crazy when I want to say something in English and I don't know the word and dictionary can't help me! Staffing is in pillows, right? :D :D

We had live broadcast of the speed skating because Martina Sáblíková was a hot favourite. There not that many medal chances for the Czech Republic :) I'm off to bed right now, it's almost 1 AM here... I hate mondays :(

Close, Johny -- stuffing is in pillows! :D BTW, you'll get no criticism from me about your English (which is very good anyway). I can't handle any other language. Years ago I took 3 semesters of German in order to graduate from the university, but that's LONG GONE!

Terri, I got mine in from Amazon two weeks ago. I think it was $14.00, so this one won't kill you.
