What Savatage / Jon Oliva's Pain albums should I check out?[views:5920][posts:12]________________________________ [Jun 7,2014 10:23pm - spence ""] Huge fan of Hall of the Mountain King, and I understand that apparently it's their "best" album but i'm still interested in checking them out way more. I'm also a big fan of Streets, even if it's really different. They're the only Savatage albums I really know. What other Savatage albums should I check out? Also, are there any Jon Oliva's Pain albums I should check out? THANKS GUYZ. |

Dead Winter Dead and Edge of Thorns follow; the rest contain some good material but aren't as consistent. The first Jon Oliva's Pain album is the best and only very good one; the rest you can live without. But Jon's Raise the Curtain album from 2013 is great. |
