Nothing too fantastic for albums this week, the biggest release on my radar is a live album by Blaze Bayley, a singer who sang for Iron Maiden in the 1990s when they split from Bruce Dickinson temporarily. Dickinson is the better singer, but Bayley has a couple gems of his own, such as "Man on the Edge" and "The Clansman." He also joined with former Queensryche singer Geoff Tate and former Judas Priest singer Tim "Ripper" Owens for the song "Taking On The World" for Operation: Mindcrime's Resurrection album, released in 2016, which was one of my favorite songs of that year.
However, I'd rather focus on my "Memory Playlists." These are playlists of roughly 25 songs that cover the songs I liked the most from the concerts I went to. They started off with just one or two per concert, but slowly changed to having a lot more, now it feels like three or four is the "norm" and six means "excellent." Of course, it might also have to do with seeing more classic rock and heavy metal acts as I get older. These were also planned to be setlists for the band I hoped to make when I started them, hence the encores at the end. So, here are my first few, through the beginning of last year. I haven't seen enough events since then to make one since.
