So if anyone has any albums of Savatage I would be interested. I have three songs floating about "Conversation Piece", "Chance" and "Turns To Me".

"Conversation Piece" - is a good song. Rather funny in a way, when he sings "...Over a cup of Tea", the way it relates to the song title. Good instrumentation.
"Turns To Me" - is a brilliant track too. It's soft and hard, alternating between the two rather well. The guitaring is awesome and thankfully not overdone.
"Chance" - starts out in a rather orchastreal/symphonic(?) manner with chimes and what-not, then rolls into some good metal. This is pretty sweet prog metal. The vocals are clear and solid when singing low key, and manly when the music asks them to be.

I love this band. So why the hell have I only got 3 songs then... *Goes to download*

Albums people

Oh and LesPaul, if you don't already, I would say you'll love these guys.
