Search: Requiem
by: Queensryche

Release Date August 13, 2007
Having recently acquired the accompanying DVD on import, I must say I am looking forward immensely to purchasing the CD set as well and am particularly interested in hearing the extended versions as referred to by the previous reviewer.

It is a mono recording and the RFH has never, in its five ... Read More:
