Keeper Of The Seven Keys Part 2

The band's best known album. It's an overall progression of Keeper 1; metal's most melodic album of all times in my opinion. Weiki's influence dominates the album and it's obviously the best of it. A great flawless album.

This single isn't a reissue in Japan but it is Japanese only as well. Savage's an incredible power metal song and Kiske's version of Victim Of Fate is unbelievably terrific.

This is another Japanese re-issue by Victor. It includes 2 a-sides and a b-side by Kiske that's pretty much ok.
