Dan. I think you jave one of the finest sites on the net.I like to read the reviews, BUT it sannoying that peoble write in their native languages. Spanish.... I have no idea what the F... they mean, and Im sure many others doesnt too. I`ll try the next review in danish. Then Im sure you know what I mean.

Denne skive er absolut fantastisk. Jeg har faaet den fra en ven i Japan og John Sykes spiller som altid suveraent. Blue Murder er en af de mest undervurderede bands i branchen og fra den periode.Ha`det godt. Kim

It takes all kinds. There's no real way I can control what language people post in. I think most people realize that if their comments are to be read by the widest audience, they should probably be posted in English, otherwise their comments are likely to be ignored by most.

On "Screaming Blue Murder" John Sykes whipes the floor with Whitesnake! The Snake goes down to the canvas in the 9th round when the get K.O. -ed by a hard right from Sykes' "Still of the night" (which he and none other has written!). The tribute to Phil Lynott is breathtaking. I quote: "...give it up one more time for Phil!..." > "Dancing in the moonlight"! A masterpiece, truly one of the best live albums ever recorded! Hell: don't forget to listen to the Blue Murder songs while you're at it

KIM, IF YOU BE ABLE TO WRITE IN ENGLISH, CONGRATULATION. ALSO IN DANISH? CONGRATULATION. I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHAT ARE YOU SAYING, AND ALSO I`D LIKE YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN, BUT I DON´T WRITE IN ENGLISH VERY WELL ALTHOUGH I CAN UNDERSTAND THE REVIEWS IN ENGLISH. I CAN TRANSMIT BETTER MY REVIEW IN MY LANGUAGE. I KNOW YOU CAN´T UNDERSTAND, BUT THERE ARE MANY OTHERS THAT CAN DO IT: SOUTH AMERICA, SPAIN... OR ANYONE SPEAKS SPANISH. IN MY CASE I DON`T WANT OFEND TO ANYBODY WRITING IN SPANISH...

YOYO. I have no .....absolutely no plans of learning Spanish. I do just fine speaking english, but to be honest, why cant the spanish speaking rockers´, using this site write the reviews in English. I'd like to read their opinions about the music. And after all this is an english speaking site. I tried to translate som of it using Alta Vistas translator, but it didnt turn out that great.

KIM, I know that's too late to talk about languages ... But, i can speak to you in Portuguese, ok ? you'll gonna love it.... So, Blue Murder Rocks! IMO, Sykes is one of the greatest guitar-heroes, i prefer him to Vai in Whitesnake, he sounds fuckin'better. Anybody else in agreement ?

Wonderful live album but shamely their last one as a band ...this power trio was awesome and composed great songs that you can find in their two studio albums ("S/T" 1989 & "Nothin' But Trouble" 1993)...in here they delivered a bombastic show and clearly you could noticed how "savage" in the good sense of the word this band was live..."Riot","Cold Sweat"(Thin Lizzy song),"Billy"(fantastic and my fave one ever),"Jelly Roll","We All Fall Down","Please Don't Leave Me"(AORish feel),"Still Of The Night"(Whitesnake song) & "Dancin' In The Moonlight"(another Thin Lizzy song and here you can even notice that Sykes was trying to sing almost like Phil Lynott...AMAZING!!!)...remember that John Sykes was a member of both Thin Lizzy & Whitesnake and this was like his personal tribute...get this right away!!!.95/100
