Diamond Head - a British heavy metal band formed in 1976. They were one of the leading members of the NWOBHM and are acknowledged by later bands like Metallica and Megadeth as an important influence. 'Borrowed Time' is Diamond Head's fourth recording, their second on the MCA label. The album was recorded in 1981 and released in 1982. Diamond Head to this day remains a living legend of the NWOBHM genre. Now, with this reissue of 'Borrowed Time', heavy metal enthusiasts can once again feel the astonishing energy of some of Diamond Head's best songs ever released. New digipak edition, limited to 2000 numbered copies.

After their masterful first album, Diamond Head were largely touted as the most promising stars of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. The band soon turned into its own biggest disappointment, however, with the release of 1982's Borrowed Time: a textbook case of a misunderstanding record company tampering with a successful formula, and a band too nave to know any better. "To Heaven from Hell" and "Call Me" are awkward attempts to meld Diamond Head's Black Sabbath-inspired riffage with more commercial melodies and choruses. Even worse, the band re-recorded blatantly inferior versions of two classics from its debut, "Lightning to the Nations" and "Am I Evil?" And while total disaster is averted on "In the Heat of the Night" and "Don't You Ever Leave Me," only the title track comes close to measuring up to prior expectations. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

5 stars Great album
This is a unfortunate victim of the 80s. The sound they have is unique, awesome 80s sound. They never got the following they deserved but still got out a few albums. This is a must for anyone who enjoys good music.

3 stars Totally Awesome!
This is a great album! The main singer has a voice range that competes with the likes of today's male artists. They were a totally awesome band that never got the recognition they deserved. Nevertheless, they will always reign supreme.

Bill Dixon first picked up a guitar in 1958, and learned "Hard Travelin' " from a traveling folksinger named, "Danny O'Day". That was in Columbus, Ohio in a long-gone coffee shop called "The Avant Garde". Bill was 14, had just acquired a Harmony archtop and a black turtleneck sweater, and was a bit too young for the Kerouac-inspired hipsters in the place, but he tried to fit in. There's been a lot of water over ...

Jessica Campbell Put The Stars Back EP CD  (2009)

Borrowed Time music CDs
CD $7.49
On March 3, 2009 Campbell’s fans can expect her most exhilarating, inspiring, and compelling release yet. The EP “Put the Stars Back” exemplifies Campbell’s growth as a songwriter and an artist. This quickly emerging folk rock artist is quickly making a name for herself on the Nashville music scene with her meaningful lyrics, energizing vocals, and the ability to present her music with graceful intensity. Campbell partnered with Nashville-based producer and multi-instrumentalist Cason Cooley (Katie Herzig, Derek Webb) on the five tracks, recording the tracks at Wide Studio in East Nashville with engineer Andy Hunt. “This was the first tracking session after Hunt renovated his home studio, so there was an air of excitement and anticipation in all of us,” says Campbell. “The recordings convey the energy that I had envisioned while writing these songs. I’ve been so honored to work with a producer like Cason Cooley, who takes pride in matching the songs with the right players, instrumentation, and arrangements.”“Put the Stars Back” features some of Nashville’s brightest musicians including drummer Will Sayles (Matt Kearney, Sixpence None the Richer), electric guitarist Paul Moak (Matt Kearney, Hillary Duff), guitarist Steve Mason (Jars of Clay), and producer/keyboardist Cason Cooley (Matthew Perryman Jones, Matt Kearney). This North Carolina native had a hand in writing on all five tracks, four of which were written with fellow songwriting friends, including award-winning songwriter ...
